The poll puts Labour on 30%, up one point since Deltapoll’s previous survey, while Reform remains unchanged on 27%.

The Conservatives have fallen one point to 20%, leaving them ten points behind Labour. The Greens and Liberal Democrats are both unchanged on 8%.

The full results are:

  • Labour: 30% (+1)
  • Reform UK: 27% (–)
  • Conservatives: 20% (-1)
  • Liberal Democrats: 8% (–)
  • Greens: 8% (–)
  • SNP: 3% (+1)
  • Plaid Cymru: 1% (–)
  • Others: 3% (–)

The findings provide another encouraging sign for Prime Minister Andy Burnham and Labour following the change of leadership last month.

Labour’s advantage over Reform has widened from two points in the previous Deltapoll survey to three points, while the party has established a double-digit lead over the Conservatives.

Ibrahim Dogus, founder of Labour Home and chair of SME4Labour, said:

“This poll is further evidence that Labour is rebuilding public trust under Andy Burnham’s leadership. Reaching 30% and opening a clear lead over Reform shows that voters are responding positively to a government focused on living standards, stronger public services, economic growth and support for businesses and communities.”

“There can be no complacency, but the momentum is clearly with Labour. The task now is to build on that progress and continue demonstrating that Labour is delivering practical improvements to people’s lives in every part of the country.”

The result also builds on other polling showing Labour recovering strongly since Burnham entered Downing Street. A More in Common survey published during his first week as Prime Minister put Labour ahead of Reform for the first time in more than a year.

While individual polls provide snapshots rather than predictions, the latest figures suggest Labour is rebuilding support and strengthening its position as the leading party in national voting intention.

Deltapoll surveyed 2,022 adults across Great Britain between 21 and 24 August 2026.
