Conservatives leapfrog Reform UK in latest poll
Summarised from 3 outlets · Updated 13 Oct, 14:32 · Archive
A YouGov poll puts the Conservatives at 23%, second behind Labour at 24% and ahead of Reform UK at 21%.
A YouGov poll for Sky News and The Times has put the Conservatives at 23%, ahead of Reform UK at 21% and second only to Labour at 24%. The three-point jump for the Conservatives comes shortly after Kemi Badenoch's speech to the Conservative Party conference. The increase is within the margin of error.
Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch said the public had taken a 'long look' at Clacton MP Nigel Farage's Reform UK party and decided they 'don't like what they see'. The Conservatives have repeatedly lagged behind Reform UK in polling over the past year.
Bardenoch told the Press Association she was 'confident that the momentum will continue, because people are seeing the Conservative Party has changed under my leadership and there's much more to come, this is just the beginning'. She acknowledged the party's defeat two years ago and its mistakes, saying she had been 'showing the public that I understand what went wrong'.
