UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak’s Conservative Party made up significant ground on the Labour opposition in one poll conducted just days after the budget found.
While the survey by Deltapoll is at odds with other recent polls, it showed support for the Tories jumped to 35%, leaving them just 10 points behind Keir Starmer’s party. Sunak’s party made up 13 points on Labour in the course of just one week.
