A fresh public opinion poll indicates that the UK's right-wing improvement organization Nigel Farage has become the most popular political group in the UK. In a poll conducted by YouGov for “The Times”, the UK improvement gained 25% support, ahead of the ruling Labour organization (24%) and the Conservative organization (21%). This is the first time that the UK improvement has taken the lead in national polls.
Three fast facts:
- The UK improvement for the first time in past ranks first in a national survey.
- The Keira Starmer labour organization loses support – a decrease of 3 percent points compared to the erstwhile study.
- The YouGov survey was conducted on a example of 2,465 people on 2–3 February 2025.
Political change – improvement UK poll leader
Only a fewer months ago, the Labour organization enjoyed large support after the election triumph in July 2024. But now the polls show a reversal of the trend. The latest UK improvement result, although within the limits of statistical error, is groundbreaking. Nigel Farage's group had never been at the top of a national election preference survey before.
The amazing consequence of the UK improvement is simply a signal of the expanding discontent of British Labour organization governments. A decline in support by 3 percent points per week may show increasing doubts about Keira Starmer's government's actions. In turn, the Conservative Party, erstwhile the dominant force in British politics, has only 21 percent support and remains on the defensive.
Nigel Farage's offensive – a politician who changes the power system
Nigel Farage has been 1 of the most recognizable figures in the British political scene for years. His earlier successes, especially in the context of Brexit, made him a symbol of Euroscepticism and national policy. The UK reform, which Farage re-acquired last year, focuses on harsh messages on immigration, sovereignty and criticism of establishment.
According to analysts, the emergence in popularity of the UK improvement is due to increasing disappointment towards the Labour organization and deficiency of assurance in the Conservative Party. The UK improvement effectively attracts right-wing voters who have late supported the Tories, but are now looking for an alternative.

Can UK improvement keep the lead?
Although the UK improvement over the Labour organization has only 1 percent point and the survey is within statistical mistake limits, this consequence shows a clear trend. If elections were held today, Britain could face an unprecedented political turn.
Can UK improvement keep this support? Much depends on Nigel Farage's further action and the reaction of another political parties. 1 thing is certain – British politics are facing 1 of the most unpredictable periods in their modern history.
Political scene in Britain – The situation of Nigel Farage
In the context of British politics and the situation in Poland, there are parallels between groups. If we look at the Polish political scene, then:
- Civil Coalition (KO) represents the centre-liberal and pro-European trend, which is closer Labour Party in Britain. Both the KO and Labour place large emphasis on integration with the European Union, climate issues, social policy and the greater function of the state in the economy.
- Law and Justice (PiS) is simply a conservative, Eurosceptic and national organization that ideologically stands closer to Conservative organization (Torysi). Both groups emphasise the importance of state sovereignty, conventional values and restrictions on immigration.
Where is Nigel Farage's UK improvement in all this? It is simply a organization even more to the right than the Tories, in many respects resembling the Confederation in Poland. He puts strong opposition to mass immigration, insists on state sovereignty and criticises the political establishment, including both ruling and left-wing opposition.
So if the UK improvement gains in polls in the UK, it is politically closer to the Law and Justice, but even more towards the anti-systemic right. The Labour Party, which loses support, is the equivalent of the KO – both groups represent the centre-left, pro-European and more liberal socially.
