🚨Last night, we launched a poll at 8pm to get a snap reaction from the public after what was a remarkable day in British politics.

This is the first poll conducted entirely after yesterday's events.

Full thread below - all charts taken from our data collection platform.

(1/n) First up, as always, vote intention. Labour are registering a NINE point lead over the Conservatives:

CON🔵33%
LAB🔴42%
LD🟠11%
GRN🟢4%
SNP🟡3%
REFUK 3%
PC 1%
OTHER 2%

(2/n)

🚨Throughout December - on behalf of @thesundaytimes - we've been polling thousands of people (25,000 in total!) and have built an MRP model to give a constituency-by-constituency breakdown for how the country would vote if an election were held today.

The results are in. First up, the predicted national vote share:

CON🔵32%
LAB🔴40%
LD🟠10%
GRN🟢7%
SNP🟡3%
OTHER 9%

The bigger story is the seat count this translates into:

CON🔵237 (-128 vs. 2019)
LAB🔴338 (+136)
LD🟠6
GRN🟢1
SNP🟡48
PC⚪️ 1

In other words, a stunning 26-seat Labour majority.

🚨We've run a fresh poll to find out if the results we saw in our poll 2 weeks ago (e.g. big Lab lead) were caused by strong (but temporary) public anger in response to the govt. staff party revelations, or whether they indicated a more permanent shift.

It looks like the latter. First, current vote intention:

CON🔵 34%
LAB🔴41%
LD🟠9%
GRN🟢4%
SNP🟡4%
OTHER 6%

Essentially no chg in Lab/Con vote share since our Dec 9 poll (in the heat of partygate), suggesting the stark Lab lead wasn't a flash in the pan. The Tories seem to have suffered lasting damage.

We ran a snap poll for @TimesRadio overnight. The findings are pretty damning for Boris Johnson.

Full thread below - all charts screen-grabbed from our data collection platform. First up, vote intention:

CON: 33%
LAB: 41%
LD: 7%
GRN: 6%
SNP: 5%
PC: 1%
OTHER: 1%

Conservatives down 4 points vs. an internal poll we ran exactly one week ago (2-3 Dec)

Staggering stuff.
