Labour have topped their second poll in two days as evidence grows that the party are firmly back ahead of Reform in the public voting intention.
On Monday, Labour topped their first poll in over a year when More in Common put them four points clear of Reform.
This was after just a week of Andy Burnham being prime minister, as the ‘Burnham bounce’ continues to gather momentum.
Now, a second major poll has seen Labour come out on top.

In polling published on Tuesday, Survation put Labour two points ahead of Reform thanks to a one point jump in support combined with a two point drop for Reform.
A two point increase for the Tories also meant that Reform were just three points clear of them, whilst there was also a two point rise for the Greens.
The evidence is starting to grow that Burnham has fully knocked Reform off their polling perch.
YouGov’s latest voting intention poll this week recorded both an increase in support for Labour and a drop for Reform, leaving them tied on 22% each at the top.
The Tories were even closer to the top two on this one, just a point behind on 21%.
And when you look at the polling trend across the board, it makes for encouraging reading for Burnham and Labour.
For example, the Spectator’s poll tracker, which takes an average of all major polls, has Labour one point ahead of Reform.
So, we can probably expect a few more polls like the above this week.
