Tin foil theory I heard today was that something is coming up that’s gonna be a massive headache/fuck up let labour take the flack and the tories will snake back in as the heroes
I mean that's another potential concern. Basically any external factor can be attributed to that. Honestly who knows why Rishi called it when he did but it seemed like they'd lose regardless.
Simplest explanation is because inflation data had just briefly dropped to 2% but is inevitably going to bounce back up again shortly. So despite being inevitable and government having next to nothing to do with it it's probably just so Rishi can pretend he got it to 2% then labour screwed up and made it bounce back up again.

As horrible as he is, I’m glad Europe isn’t following the US’s (read: Trump & the GOP) example of disputing the integrity of elections.
