Scots abandoning PM's party for polls

SCOTS Labour voters are deserting the party in droves, a poll claims.

Fewer than half who backed the party in last year's general election would vote for them again.

Research by YouGov found 48 per cent of those who voted for Sir Keir Starmer last July would be willing to vote Labour again.

More than a third said they are considering voting for the Liberal Democrats, while more than a quarter plumped for the SNP.
