Depends on whether or not there is a snap election this year…
I'm fairly sure that even if there's a snap election this year the election after that will be in 2030. Doing it early will just hand the new government a few extra months of power, it doesn't calculate forward from the last election it's just every 5 years regardless of what else is going on.
A parliament has a maximum term of 5 years. Any change to the date of the next election will have a direct impact on the latest date of the next election.
