Our tactical voting recommendation in Peterborough:
Vote Labour
Why vote Labour in Peterborough?
Here the Tories were still slightly ahead in the May 2024 local elections in a vote that was splintered between different parties in different wards. When thinking about the national picture, Peterborough emerges as a contest between Labour and the Conservatives. Latest polling shows Labour ahead of the Conservatives by a comfortable majority in this constituency, but polls have tightened during campaigns before and been in error in some previous elections. Labour’s lead has fluctuated in recent months and despite the national polls Peterborough cannot be taken for granted.
