EU and United Kingdom officially agree by 31 August 2026 on a date and format for a UK-EU summit in Q4 2026 (October–December) – confirmed by the European Council or Downing Street

Probability

52%

Andy Burnham became Prime Minister on 20 July 2026 (replacing Starmer). EU Council President António Costa called immediately, confirming intent for a summit 'by year-end.' The July 22 summit was postponed as Burnham had just taken office. Burnham has publicly favoured closer EU ties without re-running the Brexit referendum. Given mutual political will and EU pressure for a summer announcement, formal summit date confirmation by end of August is realistic but uncertain. Own estimate: 52%.

Mecklenburg-Vorpommern state election (20 September 2026): AfD wins more than 34.0% of votes cast (confirmed by Landeswahlleiter MV or tagesschau.de by 21 September 2026)

The AfD leads consistently in MV between 35 and 38%: Infratest dimap (Sept 9) 38%, INSA (Sept 8) 36%, PolitPro aggregate 36.6%. Polymarket gives 79% odds that AfD wins more votes than SPD. SPD is catching up (31–33%) but remains well behind. A sub-34% result would require a collapse invisible in any current survey. Polymarket implies 44% probability of AfD landing in the 35–38% range and 32% for above 38%.

Swedish Riksdag Election (13 September 2026): Vänsterpartiet (V) wins more than 7.0% of votes (confirmed by Valmyndigheten by 14 September 2026)

All current polls show V clearly above 7%: Novus (Sept 6–8) 7.5%, Verian (Sept 2) 8.1%, Demoskop (Sept 1) 7.9%, Indikator Opinion (Sept 4) 9.3%. PolitPro aggregate (10 September 2026): 8.0%. The left-wing party benefits from strong Röd-grön mobilization. A sub-7% result would require a massive polling error currently invisible in any survey. No specific Polymarket market found for V; the overall market confirms the Röd-grön lead.

Swedish Riksdag Election (13 September 2026): Röd-grön bloc wins parliamentary majority (at least 175 seats, confirmed by Valmyndigheten by 14 September 2026)

The Röd-grön bloc (S + V + MP + C) leads all current polls over the Tidö bloc (M + SD + KD + L). Novus (Sept 6–8) projects 179 vs. 170 seats, Verian even 190 vs. 159. Polymarket gives Magdalena Andersson (S) 83% odds as next PM; a Tidö majority is rated at only 17–18% (Lines.com). Critically, Liberalerna (L) sit at just 3.1% in the PolitPro aggregate — below the threshold — costing Tidö roughly 17 seats.
