Support for Reform UK plummets to lowest level in two years
Support for Reform UK has fallen to 21 per cent in the latest YouGov poll, its lowest level since the pollster restarted its voting-intention tracker in January 2025. The party is now level with the Conservatives, while Labour leads on 23 per cent and the Greens have risen to 14 per cent, highlighting a sharp decline after months of controversy and internal difficulties.
The poll surveyed more than 2,000 adults on 20 and 21 September 2026. Reform has faced scrutiny over alleged illegal donations, resignations by senior officials, competition from Restore Britain and declining popularity for leader Nigel Farage, whose unfavourability rating has reached 69 per cent. The party has nevertheless received £72 million from two crypto-billionaires, prompting renewed calls for limits on political donations.
