Labour’s vote share has fallen to its lowest level in more than two years ahead of the general election, new polling shows.
Support for the party dropped by four percentage points in the space of a week following Sir Keir Starmer’s final head-to-head debate with Rishi Sunak and increased scrutiny of his policies.
A poll of 2,092 adults by Savanta for The Telegraph, conducted between Wednesday and Thursday, saw the firm record the lowest Labour support since January 2022 as the gap between Labour and the Conservatives dropped to 17 percentage points.
But with a vote share of 38 per cent – compared to the Tories’ 21 per cent and Reform’s 14 per cent – Labour is on course for a majority of more than 260 seats if the current figures are replicated on on Thursday, seat modeller Electoral Calculus predicts.
The Daily Telegraph has published its own poll and will be heavily in line with its readership.
The Daily Telegraph is traditionally a right-leaning newspaper, supporting the Conservative Party.
The Telegraph is backing the Conservatives at this year’s general election.
