ime Minister Boris Johnson has received an election boost as one of the UK’s most reliable polls suggests a majority in the Tories favour.

According to the MRP poll, published jointly by The Times newspaper and Sky News, the Tories could win 339 seats out of the 650 seats in Parliament, representing a vote share of 43 percent.

This would give Mr Johnson a majority of 28, narrowing from the 68 seat lead the previous YouGov MRP poll suggested.

The poll also showed the Labour Party would win 231 seats, which would be down one seat from the 2017 election, representing 34 percent of the vote.

Labour is now due to secure 18 seats that it was on course to lose under the first MRP prediction.

The party’s average position has improved by six points in Labour marginals that voted Remain but only two points in its constituencies that voted heavily to Leave, suggesting it is benefiting from tactical voting.
