GB News’ Camilla Tominey has confronted Conservative Party chairman James Cleverly over the party’s latest polling, which shows a dramatic collapse in support.

The grilling comes as a groundbreaking YouGov MRP megapoll released this week reveals Reform UK could secure 311 parliamentary seats if an election were held immediately, positioning Nigel Farage’s party just 14 seats short of an outright majority.

The comprehensive survey, which sampled 13,000 respondents compared to standard polls’ 2,000, represents YouGov’s first MRP analysis since June and enables detailed constituency-level predictions.

Speaking from the Labour Party Conference on GB News, Camilla said: “When you’ve got 113 polls putting Reform UK ahead, and all polls suggesting that the longer Keir Starmer leads the party, the less popular he becomes would you have been a better leader of the Conservative Party?”

Shadow Housing Secretary James Cleverly responded: “Well, I ran for leadership. I didn’t get it, and I’m completely comfortable with that.

“What I’ve also said is that one of the things that has damaged us as a party is this constant cycling through leaders.

“What we need to do is highlight what we are doing, and expose the disastrous job Labour are doing in Government.

“Increasingly now, with Reform running things in local Government, we’re seeing the absolute disaster they are when they’re in charge of anything.

“Of course, we’ve got to rebuild our reputation that won’t happen overnight.

“But we don’t rebuild reputations by making increasingly undeliverable promises, like we just heard from Steve Reed, claiming he’s going to build houses despite personally opposing house building in his own constituency.

“We’re not going to rebuild credibility the way Reform UK are doing it, by making announcements that don’t even last 24 hours before they fall apart.

“We are doing the professional, hard work. That is what you have to do to regain credibility.”

The results of the groundbreaking poll mark a dramatic transformation in British politics, with Reform UK emerging as the dominant force according to multiple polling indicators.

Meanwhile, Labour faces its own crisis of confidence, with recent YouGov data revealing that merely 14 per cent of the British public endorses the Government’s performance since taking office, whilst 69 per cent express disapproval.

This produces a net approval score of -55, virtually identical to the Conservative Government’s final rating before losing power.

Remarkably, even amongst those who voted Labour, 53 per cent now disapprove of the Government’s record, with only 29 per cent maintaining positive views.

The polling exposes widespread public perception of Labour as disconnected from voters, with 66 per cent viewing the party as out of touch and 65 per cent believing its objectives remain unclear.

Trust in Labour has collapsed across all major policy areas, with between 74 per cent and 77 per cent of respondents expressing minimal confidence in the party’s handling of living costs, immigration, taxation, economic management, representation and promise-keeping.
