Boris's Christmas chaos helps Labour take four-point poll lead
Boris Johnson's last-gasp change to Christmas rules for millions of people has seen support for Labour surge to its highest of the entire pandemic, a new poll revealed today. Keir Starmer's party holds a four-point lead over the Conservatives going into the festive period amid ongoing chaos around the rules that will be in place for families in England. The poll for YouGov was conducted on Monday and Tuesday this week, as the Prime Minister announce his decision to cut a festive relaxation of Covid rules from five days to one and plunge many areas into a new, tougher, Tier 4 lockdown.
