The Nigel Farage-led Reform UK party has tied for first place in a national poll for the first time in its history as the Westminster establishment parties continue to struggle.
A survey of 2,078 adults in Britain by the Find Out Now pollster found that the upstart populist Reform party has surged to 25 per cent in national support.
This was good for a joint lead with the governing leftist Labour Party, which also came in at 25 per cent, just over six months after sweeping to a large majority in the summer general election.
Meanwhile, the so-called Conservative Party, led by former Equalities Minister Kemi Badenoch, languishes in third place with 20 per cent support.
