Labour has opened an eight-point lead over the Conservatives in the latest Ipsos poll, scoring 32 per cent to the Tories' 24 per cent, with Reform UK in third on 20 per cent.

The surge in support coincides with Prime Minister Andy Burnham taking leadership, with Labour winning back former voters and seeing support among 18- to 24-year-olds rise to 32 per cent.
