Labour tops polls for first time in 16 months after Burnham’s first week as PM

Labour has surged ahead in polls for the first time in 16 months, overtaking Reform. Just over a quarter of Britons would now vote for Labour in a general election. This shift follows Burnham's first week as PM. Despite the polling increase, Burnham insists he would rule out a general election at this time, maintaining his current position while the party experiences its first significant lead since March of last year.
