Reform UK leads new poll as Kemi Badenoch's popularity declines

Reform UK has topped a new Sky/YouGov poll with 25%, surpassing Labour at 24% and the Conservatives at 21%. This marks a significant shift, as one in five former Tory voters now support Reform. Kemi Badenoch, the Conservative leader, has seen her popularity decline, falling below that of Nigel Farage. This change raises questions about her leadership and the future of the Conservative Party. Despite its current success, Reform UK faces challenges. The party needs to establish a strong platform beyond the failures of Labour and the Conservatives to maintain its support ahead of the next election, expected in 2029.
