The Tories have fallen even further behind Nigel Farage’s Reform UK, putting them on course for an election wipeout.

Our weekly poll shows just 18% of voters plan to support Rishi Sunak’s party with one week until polling day. Labour has the backing of 38%, while 21% say they plan to vote for Reform.

Both the Tories and Labour are down one point since last week, with Reform gaining a point.

Mr Sunak has failed to make any progress in reducing Keir Starmer’s commanding lead since he called the election.. Labour continues to be 20 points ahead, which is exactly how it was in our first poll of the campaign four weeks ago.

According to the latest survey, conducted by Whitestone Insight, the Lib Dems are down one point in the past week to 11%, as the Green Party has risen one point to 7%.

Lachlan Rurlander of the pollster said: “Reform UK has managed to sustain some momentum and achieved a three-point lead over the Conservatives, despite what has widely been seen as a difficult week for Nigel Farage.”

It comes as latest donation figures from the Electoral Commission show Labour managed to raise £8.6million in the first three weeks of the campaign as the Tories managed just £1.2million.

Mr Sunak today told of the hurt of his daughters after a Reform UK canvasser described him as a “f**ing p***”. Andrew Parker was filmed using the racist term about the PM as he campaigned for Mr Farage in Clacton. He also suggested migrants making dangerous Channel crossings should be used as “target practice”.

Another canvasser described the Pride flag as “degenerate” and suggested members of the LGBT community are paedophiles.

Appearing on ITV’s Loose Women, Mr Farage suggested the language of his supporters was “vulgar, drunken and wrong” and that they had been kicked out of the party.

Mr Parker said: “Of course I regret what I said. I’m old school. Christ, I’m not a racist. I’ve had Muslim girlfriends.

It was typical chaps-down-the-pub talk.” Asked why he had made the remarks, he added: “It was in the heat of the moment. I was goaded on.”
