Our tactical voting recommendation in Middlesbrough South and East Cleveland:
Vote Labour
Why vote Labour in Middlesbrough South and East Cleveland?
Middlesbrough South and East Cleveland is a seat that Labour needs to have a working majority in Parliament sufficient to keep the Tories out for a full term. Latest polling shows Labour comfortably ahead of the Conservatives in this constituency, but the Conservative vote was still strong in the Tees Valley mayoral election in May 2024 and the Conservatives will benefit from the absence of a Reform UK candidate in this constituency.
