Perhaps the most striking change is between social grades.
At the election, the Conservatives led Labour 43% to 33% among the ABC1 group, but now Keir Starmer’s party is ahead by 41% to 35%

Age is also a factor. The Conservatives held a 47-point lead over Labour among those aged 65+ in 2019 - this lead has fallen to 35 points.
Labour has also improved its lead among the 18-24 group from 35 points to 42
