Labour Party voters may decamp to the Conservative Party in the June 8 general election - YouGov

Corbyn

It has been revealed that the Labour party may be heading towards a colossal downfall in the forthcoming general election.

This was made in a recent survey conducted by YouGov, which states the 48% of the party’s loyalists are considering giving their support to another party, or are not yet sure of giving any backing to Jeremy Corbyn.

Accordingly, it has been predicted that the Conservative party may be getting the support of the Labour defectors, while the Lib Dems could be boosted by Remain voters.

It said: “This is because many people thought they would have a few years to make up their minds about who to support.

“So great are the numbers of undecideds that more people currently tell us they don’t know who they will support than say they plan to vote Labour.

"How and if these voters break over the coming weeks will determine the final result, especially in marginal constituencies.

"Were they to drift back to the party they voted for last time, this would disproportionately help Labour (as that is where many of them have come from).

"However, if they start to move towards the Conservatives, just like other voters have, we could be heading for an even bigger Tory victory than many currently anticipate."


The survey used a pool of 12,000 people, of whom 57 per cent said they would vote the same way as they did in 2015.
