Poll suggests economic populism could help Labour retain majority under Andy Burnham

Summary

Andy Burnham is being urged by senior figures to adopt an "economic populist" strategy with radical policies like rent control and higher wealth taxes to combat the cost of living crisis and help Labour retain its majority at the next election. An exclusive opinion poll of about 10,000 voters shows that without such radical shifts, Labour could be reduced to fewer than 100 seats, but that populist economic policies could fend off Reform UK in key constituencies.
