The Conservatives are currently polling lower than under Liz Truss, the latest data from YouGov has revealed.This is the lowest Conservative vote share of this Parliament, lower than under Liz Truss, when it sank to 19%.The last time YouGov recorded a lower vote share for the Tories was during 2019, in the run-up to the European Parliament elections of that year.It also matches the lowest share Labour ever received under Jeremy Corbyn in the summer of 2019.
Mr Sunak is braced for a slew of defeats in Thursday’s local elections, and while reports suggest this could lead backbench Tories to challenge his leadership, senior Government figures including Kemi Badenoch and Penny Mordaunt have rushed to his defence. Some 31% of over-65s, often considered the most likely demographic to use their franchise, intend to vote for the Conservatives.
