The Green Party lead on 40 per cent in the 18-24 age group

Labour has plunged to just 17 per cent in a new poll on voting intention, in what marks the lowest point for Sir Keir Starmer's party.

According to a YouGov poll for The Times, Labour is sitting on 17 per cent, a drop of three per cent.


Meanwhile, the Tories are neck-and-neck with Sir Keir's party, also at 17 per cent, while Reform is leading the pack on 27 per cent.

Labour is at threat of falling even lower, with the Greens nipping at its heels with 16 per cent.

Sir Keir could even see his party fall to fifth, with the Liberal Democrats sitting on 15 per cent - just two points behind Labour.

The gap between second and fifth is just two points.

Meanwhile, Reform UK has stormed ahead with 27 per cent of the voting intention, an increase of one compared to the previous poll.

The figures represent the lowest rating Labour has recorded in YouGov figures.

It also shows how support for the Greens is surging among younger voters.

The data suggests 40 per cent of people aged 18-24 intend on voting for Zack Polanski's party as Labour lags in second on 21 per cent.

Sir Ed Davey's Liberal Democrats sit in third on 13 per cent.

However, it is a completely different picture among over-65 voters.

Reform leads in that category.

The polling comes after Labour placed third in the Caerphilly by-election last week, recording just 11 per cent of the vote in the Senedd seat.

Labour finished behind Reform in second and Plaid Cymru in first.

It marked the first time Labour had lost an election in the former mining town in more than a century.

Sir Keir said he was "deeply disappointed" by the result and added his party "clearly needs to do much more".

Andy Burnham's allied pressure group, Mainstream, warned that Labour could be "wiped out in Wales next May" if there was not a major reset.

The group advised Sir Keir to "reject the hyper-factional culture" which is determined to keep the power at the top of the party.

Ipsos pollster Keiran Pedley said it was "hard to see how Labour" could turn things around when speaking to The Independent.

Mr Burnham, who is the Mayor for Greater Manchester, is yet to rule out whether he will challenge Sir Keir for the Labour leadership.
