The leader of Reform UK would be a better Prime Minister than Sir Keir Starmer, according to voters in over half of constituencies.
The new poll indicates that Nigel Farage would be preferable in No10 over the Labour leader, with voters in 335 constituencies favoring him, compared to only 291 for his opponent.
Meanwhile, Kemi Badenoch is voters’ favourite in a measly six constituencies, according to the survey conducted by JL Partners for the Adam Smith Institute.
The poll comes ahead of the run-up to May’s local elections – when the populist party is set to make significant gains across the nation.
However, Labour is set to receive a humiliating battering as it prepares to drop double the number of seats to Reform as to the Tories.
Adding salt to the wound, around 10 per cent of those who voted Labour in the 2024 General Election are now considering Reform.
Additionally, the ex-Ukip leader is favoured over his Labour counterpart in key Labour-Reform battleground constituencies.
Yesterday, Nigel Farage declared that there was a “good chance” of him becoming PM, he told The Times.

Further findings revealed that more than 50 per cent of Britons believe that Labour are anti-fun and are opposed to personal freedoms as the Government ploughs ahead with its plan to ban disposable vapes, as well as smoking in certain areas.
Co-founder of JL Partners Tum Lubbock told The Sun: “Keir Starmer is in a race for popularity with Nigel Farage and at the moment this data shows that Nigel Farage is the preferred choice for Prime Minister in more than half of constituencies vs the Prime Minister.
“That extends to 1 in 10 of those who actually voted Labour last year who now say that Nigel Farage would be a better PM than the man who actually holds that office – Keir Starmer.”
Since entering No10, Starmer has been afflicted with poor popularity polls, standing currently at around 27 per cent according to national pollster YouGov.

Director of public affairs at ASI Maxwell Marlow urged the Government to begin prioritising things which “really matter” to people, including reducing the cost of living or working to fix public services.
He said: “This should be a wake up call for Starmer and co.
“Rather than acting like the anti-fun police, they should be laser-focused on delivering what they’ve repeatedly said is their number one mission: growth.
“If they don’t change course they’ve got no excuse for failing to understand why their voters are turning to parties like Reform UK, who at the very least will let people enjoy the little pleasures in life.”
