Labour takes the lead for the first time in over a year as Prime Minister Andy Burnham sees a surge in approval ratings.
In Episode 18 of The Opinion Brief by More in Common, host Luke Tryl breaks down our latest UK voting intention polling. We examine Labour’s jump to 28%, Reform UK’s drop, and how voters are reacting to Andy Burnham’s first fortnight of policy moves - from electricity VAT cuts to long-term social care reform.
Plus, Luke is joined by Charlie Buckley to look at polling and focus groups for this week's Greater Manchester by-election, and Anouschka Rajah discusses proportional representation (PR) and how different voting systems could reshape our politics. ***** Access todays graphs, charts and images: https://www.moreincommon.org.uk/newsletter/the-opinion-brief-podcast/ For more from the podcast: https://linktr.ee/OpinionBriefPod Contact us: [email protected] Read more: https://www.moreincommon.org.uk Hosted on Acast.
