Sir Keir Starmer's Labour has a 23-point lead in the latest poll on voter intentions from Techne UK, with the Tory-Labour gap remaining wide over the past few months.
The data is taken from 1,641 surveyed individuals across the UK, weighted to be representative of the population. At just 21 per cent of the vote, the Conservatives are at one of their lowest levels of popularity with the electorate under Mr Sunak.
