West Yorkshire
Along with the neighbouring seat of Selby and Ainsty, West Yorkshire forms a tight group of key marginal seats. Local election results and our survey last year both suggested the Conservatives were doing comparatively badly here and this year’s figures continue to suggest it is one of their weaker areas. The swing is still enough to secure for the conservatives all their West yorkshire target seats, but not the sort of magnitude that would be necessary to start threatening Labour’s safer seats in South Yorkshire.
West Yorkshire Summary
Swing from Labour to the Conservatives of 9.6%
