Reform’s polling slump shows little sign of reversing, as the party’s support fell once more in the latest YouGov polling.
According to the pollster – which Nigel Farage has decided to start a feud with – Reform’s support dropped by two points compared to the week before.
At the same time, Labour saw their support jump by two points, putting them just four points behind Reform.
After rising to second last week, the Greens have dropped back down to third, with YouGov noting this is “presumably as the publicity impact of Denton & Gorton gradually recedes.”
