Reform UK potentially stalling gives some relief to Conservatives – London Business News | Londonlovesbusiness.com

The Conservative Party has recorded its first increase in a Savanta voting intention since early June (31 May-2 June), up to 21%, according to the latest voting intention poll from Savanta for The Telegraph.

The poll, conducted this week (21-24 June) sees Labour (42%) holding their significant lead, while Reform UK has seen a two-point decrease – the first Savanta poll to show Farage’s party losing vote share since 7-9 June.

Savanta’s findings could imply that Nigel Farage’s party may be stalling following “the first real wobble of Reform UK’s campaign”.

Emma Levin, Associate Director at Savanta said, “The Conservative death spiral appears to have halted or at least slowed for now, with the first Savanta voting intention in nearly a month which doesn’t show a decrease in their vote share.”

“Rishi Sunak is likely being aided by the first real wobble of Reform UK’s campaign, with their progress seeming to have stalled. All of this matters little to the Labour Party, who continue to look on course for a thumping majority.”
