Data also showed that the Conservatives are on track to lose their one Merseyside seat at the next election
More than one in five people in an area of Merseyside would describe themselves as “financially desperate”, meaning they cannot afford essentials.
In Birkenhead, 22% of people put themselves in this category. In Liverpool Riverside, the figure is 16%, and it is 15% in Liverpool West Derby. The polling also found that the Conservative Party would lose its Southport seat if the general election took place now. Southport is the only Tory seat in Merseyside and has never had a Labour MP.
The regional voting results are echoed in the national picture, which shows that across the country, the Conservatives would lose all 44 Red Wall seats, and hold just 30 out of 52 ‘Blue Wall’ seats .
