Robert Jenrick reacts on GB News as shock poll sees Reform slip to third
Share this New Ipsos polling paints a pretty picture for the Labour Party Reform remains Labour’s main opposition despite a new bombshell poll suggesting otherwise, Robert Jenrick has told GB News. New Ipsos polling paints a pretty picture for the Labour Party, which has its biggest majority since the election, up five points from last month to 32 per cent. Reform, meanwhile, has dropped to third behind the Tories suggesting a return to two-party politics in Britain could be on the cards.

We’re clearly the main opposition to Labour.” He then accused the Tories of only focusing on issues affecting non-working people. Follow related topics:
