A NEW poll has put Keir Starmer's Labour Party in fourth place behind Reform, the Greens and Conservatives.
The Find Out Now survey carried out this week put Labour on just 15%, a staggering three points behind the Greens as Zack Polanski's party continues to surge in popularity with voters.
The poll of 2717 people put Reform UK on 33%, the Greens on 18%, the Conservatives on 16% and the LibDems on 11%.
Labour came just 12% ahead of the SNP, who voters can only opt for in Scotland.
Translated into seats, it means Reform would win a General Election if it were to be held now with 386.
The Greens would win 55 seats, taking key Labour strongholds like Emily Thornberry’s seat of Islington South and Finsbury.
Despite getting a relatively low share of the vote, the LibDems would still win 73 seats and be named the official opposition.
Labour would fall from 401 seats to just 25.

Wow. From that I’ll conclude Labour not call an election before they have to (August of 2029).
Yep, too bad the stupid British gave Labour a vote of confidence proof majority so no general until 29, an eternality.
Are the Greens still eco-radicals, or just another party for discontented Labourites and Liberal Democrats to vote for?
Can anyone explain to this dummy how LibDems can still win 73 seats and be named the official opposition coming in at 6th place with a platry 11% of the vote?
They may actually send "boots" to Ukraine in the meantime.
That and a nickel buys a nice hot cup of jack squat.

It think it’s the nature of British parliamentary elections. Each British constituency is won by a plurality. And with many parties dividing the vote, a party can win a seat with a relatively small percentage.
Now here’s the kicker. Labour presently has a huge majority in Parliament. So Labour can do whatever it wants. By they only won 34% of the popular vote!
shirley Keir Stasi has reason prevent an election in his police state..
Ain’t democracy wonderful?
Them Russians can’t win!
Ain’t democracy wonderful?
Lets us vote someone like that in.
Reform = 14% and yet they only won 5 seats.
Because the MPs are elected in districts (or whatever the equivalent term is for the UK), same way our House members are elected.
True enough...since the election isn’t until 2029 and Labour has a huge super majority and is unlikely to vote itself out of power, just as it is very unlikely the King would step in unilaterally and dismiss Parliament and order new elections himself.
The Conservative/Reform split voting allowed for that to happen. Now in these polls the Left’s voting bloc is being split to cause the same thing for Reform to potentially occur.
