The latest polling reveals strong support for a snap election within the next six weeks.

And more than two out of three voters believe there is a “culture of sleaze” in the Government.

When asked whether Mr Sunak or Sir Keir Starmer would make the best Prime Minister, four out of 10 opted for the Labour leader with just 32 per cent backing the PM. However, nearly half of those polled (48 per cent) did not know who would do the best job.
