Large swathes of Essex and East London appear to be veering towards Labour, according to survey conducted by the eye of media.com.
In an election campaign that has been fiercer and tougher than first expected, Labour has gained strong grounds in areas like Basildon, Laindon, Southend, Romford, and Ongar.
In East London, Stratford, Beckton, East Ham, and Upton Park, are generally indicating Labour. The race for Downing Street currently occupied by Theresa May, is a strong one. Labour’s stronghold in these areas suggests a leaning towards the Labour leader because they find him clever and more credible than May.
Many have highlighted the plunge in school finding as their reasons, with others pointing out issue in relation to the elderly and the police. A total of 90 people out of 204 people spoken to in those areas combined, expressed a preference for Corbyn over May, 77 people preferring May to stay on as prime minister.

The other 48 either went for either Lib Dems, UkIP. There were individuals who simply walked past and said they would not vote because they didn’t trust either of them.

However, other ongoing polls in Norfolk and Yorkshire suggest Theresa May have clinched those areas, particularly the North of Yorkshire, according to other associates there conducting an independent poll. West Yorkshire appears to be leaning towards Labour, with the selection of intended votes swinging towards Labour in areas Leeds and parts of Bradford.
Altogether, Theresa May appears ahead in most polls, but the general information coming in is that Corbyn could quite easily pull the upset, if the random sample so far is anything to go by.

Ipsos MORI’s final 2017 election survey for the Evening Standard, which was undertaken on Tuesday and Wednesday this week, puts the Conservatives on 44 per cent and Labour on 36.
In a slight contrast, a YouGov poll published on Wednesday evening gave the Tories a 7 lead point ahead of Labour, with Theresa May on 42 per cent and Jeremy Corbyn’s Labour Party on 35, a lead of seven points. Security has been high ever since the terrorist attacks in London and Manchester, and May has promised a shake up of Human Rights Laws to give increased powers to the police and security services.
The prime minister has effectively told the public not to Trust Corbyn to handle Brexit, as she warned of higher taxes in a government ruled by Labour under Corbyn. Polls are never fully reliable, even if they can give an indication of a trend of thoughts on a subject matter. They are an estimation, and polls are more often right than wrong. Wrong often enough not to be just an estimation of how things are expected to turn out.
A win for Labour will be disastrous for May, who called this election to strengthen her hand in the Brexit negotiations ahead. A victory for May will indeed strengthen her morale and her hand, taking Corbyn back to where he was as opposition leader. The possibility of a win for Corbyn has spurred him on so far, and his still fighting. It will be crazy if he wins.
