How the Black Country, Staffordshire and North Worcestershire is set to vote at the General Election, according to latest polls

At least that's what will happen according to the latest polling data, which has been broken down to give a General Election seat-by-seat analysis.

The study, by UK Polling Report, says Labour will make a clean sweep in Wolverhampton, taking all three seats, including Wolverhampton West and Wolverhampton North East which are at the moment held by the Tories.

Walsall and Bloxwich, West Bromwich, Halesowen, and Tipton and Wednesbury will also fall to Labour.

Stafford, which has in the past been something of a bellwether seat, is a dead heat.

The research shows that Reform UK could prove crucial to Labour by taking votes from the Conservatives.

In Wolverhampton North East, Labour's Sureena Brackenbridge has a lead of 13.8 per cent over incumbent Conservative Jane Stevenson – with Reform taking a 13.83 per cent share of the vote.

In Halesowen, the Reform effect is even more profound: Labour's Alex Ballinger is polling 2.06 per cent above incumbent Tory James Morris. If the polling proves to be accurate, Reform's 11.05 per cent share of the vote could prove crucial in tipping the balance in Labour's favour.

However, in other seats, such as Wolverhampton West, West Bromwich and Tipton and Wednesbury, the swing to Labour is so great that the Reform vote would be unlikely to change the result.

The Conservatives may take some comfort that they still retain small leads of about two per cent in Dudley and Stourbridge – although in reality, the margin of error makes them too close to call.

The polling suggests a very poor showing by the Liberal Democrats in the area, uniformly coming in fifth place, behind Reform and the Greens. This would appear to indicate a high degree of tactical voting in the area.

The study needs to be treated with a degree of caution, though. By using projecting national polling data onto individual seats, it does not take into account the effect of individual candidates, or indeed campaigning on the ground.

This may work in the Conservatives' favour, come polling day. The data makes little provision for independents, many of whom are left-leaning candidates with strong personal followings. These are more likely to take votes away from Labour, as demonstrated in the West Midlands mayoral election, where independent Akhmed Yakoob stood on a Palestinian protest platform. Similarly, it is probable that George Galloway's Workers Party will take votes from Labour in specific seats, something not reflected in the data.

Candidates polling less than one per cent of the vote are excluded.
