Reform UK MP Lee Anderson (Image: PA)
Lee Anderson sounded a dire warning to Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer after a shock new poll put Reform UK 15 points ahead of Labour. The Ashfield MP - himself a former member of the party who quit for the Tories before defecting once again last year - said: "There’s going to be a Reckoning. You know its coming and we will take our country back."
The Find Out Now survey, carried out among 2,615 British adults, shows Reform UK on 33%, up two points from the previous week. Labour trails on 18%, down one point, while the Conservatives are on 17%, a drop of two points. The Liberal Democrats and Greens remain unchanged on 12 and 10 percent respectively. The poll underscores the rapid rise of Reform UK, which currently holds five seats in Parliament and has recently led national opinion polls.

The party also achieved significant success in the local elections in May, taking control of 10 councils, signaling growing support at both national and local levels.
If Reform UK were to maintain 33% support across the country, it could convert into roughly 100–120 seats in the House of Commons, enough to be a decisive force in any hung parliament scenario.
