The latest YouGov poll was conducted between November 25 to 26 and gives the Tories an 11 point lead over the Labour Party. The Conservatives are up one point on 43 percent, while Jeremy Corbyn sees his party gain two points to stand on 32 percent. The Liberal Democrats are down three points on 13 percent in the wake of Jo Swinson’s disastrous performance on BBC Question Time, as their campaign struggles to gain any kind of momentum.

Nigel Farage’s Brexit Party is up one point on four percent, while the Greens bring up the rear in fifth place with two percent, down two points.

According to Electoral Calculus, this would translate into a 68 seat majority for Boris Johnson.

The Tories would have 359 seats, while Labour would be the second largest party with 208.

The SNP would receive 41 seats, with the Liberal Democrats trailing in fourth with 20.

Mr Farage would once again fail to get any MPs elected to Parliament.

In further good news for the Prime Minister the new YouGov survey finds that the Conservative vote is noticeably firmer than Labour’s.

Some 71 percent of those who currently intend to back the Tories say they will “definitely” vote for the party, but this figure falls to 62 percent for those currently backing Labour.

In addition, the Tories have been very successful in hoovering up the Leave vote and are even attracting Labour leavers.

Four in ten Labour leavers say they will or might vote for the Conservatives, and 29 percent say they will or could vote Brexit Party.

The Liberals predicated their campaign on winning over Remain voters fro the Conservatives and Labour, by adopting a position to arbitrarily cancel Brexit.

However, this strategy appears to be seriously flawed, as latest data shows the pool of poachable voters as being very small.

Only 20 percent of Conservative/Remain voters say they “probably won’t” or “definitely won’t” vote for the Tories, as do 11 percent of Labour/Remain voters for Corbyn’s party.

Jeremyn Corbyn stepped up his campaigning on Tuesday by entering Andrew Neil’s lions’ den.

The interview has heavily criticised on social media, as experts urge voters to watch the “worst ever interview by a would-be Prime Minister during an election campaign”.

Mr Corbyn’s interview with Andrew Neil aired on BBC1 at 7pm on Tuesday and has already been torn apart by British voters.

During the interview the Labour leader failed to apologise to the British Jewish community, despite the host promoting him six times to do so.

The Labour leader also stumbled on questions over how Labour will fund their ambitious spending proposals.

Matt Forde, who runs the comedy podcast The Political Party, took to Twitter to condemn the car crash interview.

He wrote: “That has to be the worst interview by a would-be Prime Minister during an election campaign.

“I’m astonished by what I’ve just seen.

“If that was shown in a cinema the audience would still be sat in their seats after the credits had finished.”
