The Conservatives and Reform have both seen their support drop in the latest polling, as Labour continue to increase their support.
Whilst Reform have been in polling free-fall for weeks now, the Tories had seemingly been benefitting from this with a polling bounce in the wake of their party conference that had seen them move into second in the polls.
Well, it looks like the Conservative Party revival is over.

YouGov’s latest Westminster voting intention poll saw support for Kemi Badenoch’s party drop by three points on the week before.
Thanks to Reform’s support falling by a point, the Tories have managed to hold onto second in YouGov’s poll – but the party are now just one point ahead of their turquoise rivals on the right.
Of course, with both right-wing party’s losing support, Labour would only need to stand still to increase their lead at the top.
But they’re doing even better than that, with the party continuing to see its support increase, almost four months into Andy Burnham’s premiership.
With a one-point jump in support, Labour has now hit the highest level with YouGov since the pollster restarted its voting intention tracker in January 2025.
YouGov’s polling comes the day after Deltapoll’s latest figures showed a very similar drop in support for both Reform and the Tories, although they have Reform in second still.
Deltapoll also recorded an increase in support for Labour…
Reacting to the polling on social media, political commentator Dan McGowan said it was evidence that Reform are “in dire straits.”
“Being mired in sleaze, crime and racism is not very endearing to the public it turns out,” he wrote.
Others wondered if there was any link between the drop in support for right-wing parties in the UK and the embarrassing midterms results Donald Trump’s Republicans had just suffered.
