Labour and Reform UK are tied on 23% in the latest YouGov Westminster voting-intention poll, highlighting the increasingly competitive nature of British politics.

The poll, conducted on 30–31 August 2026, puts both parties on 23%, while the Conservatives stand at 20%. The Greens record 13% and the Liberal Democrats 12%.

Labour has gained one percentage point from the previous YouGov survey, while Reform UK and the Conservatives remain unchanged. YouGov said the three largest parties have remained within a relatively narrow range in recent polling.

The figures provide an early snapshot of the political landscape under Prime Minister Andy Burnham, while opposition parties continue competing for voters ahead of the next general election.

The poll also underlines the changing shape of British politics, with Labour, Reform UK and the Conservatives all competing for significant shares of national support rather than one party establishing a dominant lead.

With the three leading parties separated by only three points, the latest figures are likely to intensify debate over voter loyalty, government performance and the future direction of UK politics.
