Episode description
Sky News has partnered with YouGov for the general election campaign and today the second of their three MRP polling projections is out.
It makes for very bleak reading for the Conservatives, suggesting they have not made any gains during the campaign and could slump to historically low seat numbers.
The poll also suggests Labour's majority is up, the Liberal Democrats are up as well and Reform UK could win several seats.
On this episode, Niall Paterson analyses the implications of today’s poll with our deputy political editor Sam Coates.
Plus, Sky’s political correspondent Tamara Cohen joins us from Edinburgh where she was at the launch of the SNP manifesto.
