The Labour Party maintains a wide lead over UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak’s Conservatives heading into 2024, according to a poll taken this week.

The survey, conducted by PeoplePolling for right-leaning GB News, shows 45% of likely voters would support Labour against 23% who back the Tories. The results were consistent with a series of polls in recent months. Almost 2,000 people were surveyed online on Dec. 28.
