The comparisons between the pre-election polls and results for vote share was:
So Labour well under the polls, but the rest not too far off.
The seat differences are
Pre-election poll | Exit poll | Actual | |
Labour | 453 | 410 | 412 |
Conservatives | 78 | 131 | 121 |
Lib Dems | 67 | 61 | 71 |
Reform | 7 | 13 | 5 |
SNP | 19 | 10 | 9 |
Greens | 3 | 2 | 4 |
So main difference between exit poll and results was Conservatives and Reform did worse and Lib Dems better.
