LONDON — If the polls are correct, July 4 will go down in history as one of the worst election defeats for a governing party in British history.With his Conservative Party more than 20 points behind in the polls after 14 years in power, he hoped the surprise decision would catch the opposition Labour Party on the back foot.
On top of all this, nearly all seats are being elected on new boundaries this year, which makes like-for-like comparisons with the past more difficult.
