The exit poll has predicted that Labour will win 410 seats at the General Election

Christopher Hope has claimed that Labour's predicted victory is "not just a landslide, it's a tsunami" after exit polls predicted that the party will win a whopping 410 seats.

GB News' Political Editor said: "When the exit poll announced this Labour landslide, there were cheers and whoops here in Camden from somewhere in the building. They clearly can't believe it.

"It's gone way beyond what they thought they'd get back in 2019. I kept my phone as a light with WhatsApp messages. Someone says to me, it's not a landslide, this is a tsunami."

He added: "We are seeing the biggest landslide - the biggest majority - for a Labour Party since Tony Blair's in 1997. Quite extraordinary."

He later explained: "If proved right, the Tories are down to 131. That's the lowest in modern political history for a Tory party. They are fighting a battle here to survive as a political entity, I think, after today."
