    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    Reform UK has pulled to within two points of the Conservatives, according to the latest YouGov poll of the election campaign for Sky News.

    The latest exclusive weekly survey, conducted on Monday and Tuesday before the head-to-head TV debate, puts Labour on 40%, the Tories on 19%, Reform UK on 17%, the Liberal Democrats on 10% and the Greens on 7%.

    The impact of the methodological change - which applies modelling to turnout and the behaviour of don’t knows - is typically to reduce the Labour lead by three and increase the Lib Dem share by about two.

    The poll is likely to worry some Conservatives, who fear losing voters on the right of their party to Reform UK - especially now Mr Farage is at the helm.

    A YouGov MRP poll of 53,334 people in England and Wales and 5,541 in Scotland, published on Monday, had the Conservatives likely to win Clacton but that was before Mr Farage made his dramatic announcement to return to frontline politics.
