NEW POLLING: 🗳️🗳️
Before it has even launched, a Jeremy Corbyn-led party would gain 10% of UK votes.
The poll shows that a new left party would finish first among 18- to 24-year-old voters, with 32% share.
Rarely has there been a time and the conditions so perfect to create a new genuinely left party.
