Free AccessElection Date Still Uncertain As Summer Speculation Swirls
Speculation surrounding the potential date of the next general election continues to swirl amid the vacuum of an actual set date.

- However, there has been some media speculation that the election could be brought forwardto the summer in order to stave off any potential confidence vote against PM Rishi Sunak from within the Conservatives. Amid record numbers of immigrants crossing the Channel in Q124 and expectations for heavy losses in the 2 May local elections in England, Sunak could well find himself challenged for the leadership later in May unless he signals an early election.
