Labour Pulls Ahead of Reform UK in Polls for First Time Since March

Three pollsters — More In Common, YouGov, and Sky News — now show Labour level with or ahead of Reform UK, the first such shift since March 2025. The "Burnham bounce" followed Andy Burnham's July 20 entry as prime minister, when he announced cost-of-living and youth-unemployment measures. Reform's lead was already narrowing amid negative Farage headlines, complicating any single-cause reading. A social care announcement is expected soon.
