12. There is a danger of Labour's majority being wiped out
if there is a collapse in Labour's vote resulting in a Hung Parliament.

Statistically, it would take a Tory victory by 9% over Labour just to get a simple majority (due to statistical quirks of First Past the Post). For this to happen Labour would have had to run an utterly terrible campaign and the Conservatives a brilliant one.
