National swing
A lot has been said about a 1997 moment, when Labour secured the biggest swing in post-war history. Has Keir Starmer matched expectations?
What’s this?
Why swing is important
Swing is a way to measure the shifting support of voters between two parties, in this case the movement of voters from Conservative to Labour. We calculate it by adding together the point change in popular vote of the two parties and dividing it by two.
For reference: if the swing to Labour crosses 10.2 per cent, it is higher than the swing secured by Tony Blair in 1997. In 2010, the swing to the Conservatives was 5.1 per cent.

Methodology
Results data is supplied by the Press Association and reflects change in vote share and seat numbers relative to the 2019 election. This means results from by-elections which have occurred since then have been excluded from the results.
Vote change refers to the increase or decrease in vote share seen between the 2019 and 2024 election for each party. This means that if a candidate stands as an independent in this election, but previously represented a party in 2019, they will start off with a baseline of zero votes and the new candidate for their former party will take the vote share they achieved in the last election.
The Press Association only supplies change data for major political parties, meaning some smaller parties or independents will not have a vote share change at the constituency level. Reform UK stood as the Brexit Party in 2019, so the Press Association will not compare vote share change at a constituency or national level.
Since 2019, constituency boundaries have been redrawn. Previous results are nominal based on estimates from Rallings & Thrasher. Results for the 2017, 2015 and 2010 elections are based on the closest matching predecessor constituencies.
Red Wall and blue wall seats are based on those polled by Redfield and Wilton, or their closest matching predecessors. Yellow wall seats are those which the Liberal Democrats have won at least once between 2010 and 2019.
The national swing represents the two-party - or Butler method - swing between the Conservatives and Labour between the two elections. It is calculated by dividing the vote share change of Labour and the Conservatives, and dividing it by two. The figures are only for Great Britain, as neither of the parties stand in Northern Ireland.
