A new poll today shows Labour NINE POINTS ahead of the Tories in another gruesome result for Theresa May .

The Kantar survey put Labour on 34%, ahead of the Tories on 25%, Lib Dems on 15% and Brexit Party on 10%, in the next general election.

Although both main parties appear to have lost support to Nigel Farage, the Tories lost out harder than Labour.

Labour was down one point compared to the previous monthly Kantar 'barometer', while the Tories were down seven points.

It comes after a string of polls showed the Tories behind and even in third place in a hypothetical general election.

Results are even more grim when voters are asked how they will vote in next week's EU elections.

An Opinium survey on May 8-10 put the Brexit Party ahead on 34% for the EU elections - with the Tories in fourth place on 11%.

Today's survey found the 'stop Brexit' vote split between parties with Lib Dems by far the strongest.

Change UK was on just 1% while the Greens had 3%. Pro-Brexit party UKIP had 4%.

Support for the Brexit Party and Change UK were based on respondents that spontaneously named those parties under "other". Despite this, the Brexit Party scored 10%.

The poll also found Remain nine points ahead of Leave if another Brexit referendum was held.

Remain is on 42% while Leave was on 33% - with a further 16% saying they would not vote. 9% said 'Don't Know'.

Support has dropped slightly since last month for putting a final Brexit deal to a public referendum - at 47%, down 4 points.

Some 68% of people who voted Remain want a second referendum, while 29% of Leave voters want one.
