- Labour party — the market puts it at 37%, closing 31 Aug 2029. The market resolves to Yes if the Labour party wins the most seats in the next UK general election. It resolves to No if any other party wins more seats. Readers often mistake a plurality of votes for a majority of seats, but only seat count matters.
