Hapless Starmer now trails Reform by EIGHT points in latest GB-wide More In Common pollThere's been a lot of focus on the Tories' polling problems recently, mainly due to them slipping to fourth place in the latest GB-wide YouGov poll, but the horror show continues for Labour too. Both Techne and Opinium showed Labour slumping to new post-election lows at the weekend, and now More In Common show them slipping to 22% - which is their second-lowest since the election. The outright low with More In Common was 21% a few weeks ago, which at the time stood out like a sore thumb as an outlier, so in practice things may now be as bad for Starmer as they've ever been.
GB-wide voting intentions (More In Common, 16th-19th May 2025):
Reform UK 30% (+2)
Labour 22% (-3)
Conservatives 21% (+1)
Liberal Democrats 14% (-)
Greens 8% (-)
SNP 2% (-)
Plaid Cymru 1% (-)
Reform have also hit 30% for the first time ever in a More In Common poll, and it goes without saying that their 8-point lead is also the highest they've ever had with the firm.
I've seen a bit of chatter in one or two places about the SNP being on 2% of the GB-wide vote (as opposed to the more usual 3%) in four consecutive polls from different firms. Well, two of those firms are More In Common and Techne, who actually both show the SNP on 2% extremely frequently, so there's a fair chance that this is just a coincidental little run caused by normal margin of error noise. But time will tell.
