The polling company revealed that Reform currently has a net postivity rating of -13, while Labour has plunged to -19. Focussing solely on the two party leaders, Nigel Farage trumps Keir Starmer, with a net posivity rating of -17 compred to the PM's -25. The Conservatives are down on -26.
It comes as Reform UK cut Labour’s lead by six per cent in another opinion poll, just as Labour marked its first 100 days in power. The number of MPs for Nigel Farage's party would be likely to increase from five to 26 with most of the gains coming at the expense of Labour, if a General Election was held right now.

A new poll today by JL Partners says voters now have a more positive view of Reform UK than they do Labour.

READ MORE Poll shows Reform overtaking Tories in Wales as it closes in on two main parties
It comes hot on the heels of another poll that shows Reform UK has overtaken Tories in Wales. The analysis suggests Reform UK could secure up to 17 seats in the Senedd (Welsh Parliament) at the next election, an analysis showed.
Meanwhile, earlier this month, Reform UK MP Lee Anderson hailed his party’s council by-election victory in Blackpool as a“political tsunami”. He said the result was an important step on his party’s journey to winning the next election.
The polls and election result pile pressure on Prime Minister, Sir Keir Starmer - who reportedly faces growing rifts in his Cabinet. Senior ministers - including Deputy Prime Minister Angela Rayner - are understood to be concerned over Treasury proposals to cut departmental spending plans by as much as 20 per cent next year.

Just as worrying for Sir Keir is a poll showingLabour would lose their Commons majority if Robert Jenrick was the next Tory leader. The former immigration minister would win an extra 57 seats, compared to the 30 Kemi Badenoch would claim, a study by Electoral Calculus said.
A body language expert has said Sir Keir is showing signs that he is "letting the job get on top of him", as he wrestles with the growing fury against the Labour party. It comes after the PM desperately tried to stop outrage over lucrative freebies from overshadowing the Labour Party's first annual conference.
And top Tory Oliver Dowden has called out the hypocrisy at the heart of Labour’s plans to remove hereditary peers from the House of Lords, as he blasted the party’s “nepo-babies from north London”. He claimed that Labour increasingly has senior MPs whose mothers or fathers were also senior in the party.

JL Partners, who conducted the poll Farage shared, have been endorsed by, amongst others, Former Prime Minister Theresa May.
She said: “Their work in the field of opinion research has been absolutely vital and has helped to shape everything we have done in Number 10... the insights have not only supported our work in Government but have also helped to provide a clear direction for the Conservative Party as it seeks to win a majority in the next general election – so will be of lasting value.”
Sir Mick Davis, former chief executive of the British Conservative Party, added: “J.L. Partners is diligent, professional with a rare intellect and abundance of integrity... skills needed when spelling out difficult truths to powerful people”
