Reform would win four county seats if voters went to polls tomorrow

YOUGOV SURVEY SHOWS DRAMATIC GAINS FOR PARTY

- By DYLAN HAYWARD

REFORM UK would win four Leicestershire seats if a general election were held tomorrow, a major new poll has said.

The YouGov survey shows Nigel Farage’s party making dramatic gains across the county while the Conservatives would hold five seats.

The “mega poll” of 13,000 UK voters shows Reform securing its biggest victory in North West Leicestershire with 37 per cent of the vote, followed by Melton and Syston on 31 per cent.

Loughborough, currently held by Labour, would fall to Reform with 27 per cent, while Hinckley and Bosworth would switch from Conservative to Reform with 28 per cent.

The dramatic shifts would contribute to Reform winning 311 seats nationally, just short of an overall majority but enough to put Farage in Downing Street.
