Preferred Prime Minister and Chancellor Polling

Some pollsters ask voters which potential Prime Minister/Chancellor of the Exchequer pairing they would prefer: Boris Johnson and Rishi Sunak for the Conservative Party, or Keir Starmer and Rachel Reeves (previously Anneliese Dodds) for the Labour Party. Each pollster uses the following wording for this question:

• Deltapoll: "Putting aside any support for a political party you may have, which of the following do you think would be best for the British economy?"
• Opinium: "Which, if any, of the following would you say you trust more to handle the economy?"

Hypothetical polling

Some pollsters conduct surveys to compare figures who are not both party leaders. These could include a comparison of leading politicians within the same party (to gauge support for future leadership contests), or compare the current leader of one party to an alternative leader of a second. The politicians listed below include:

• Boris Johnson, Prime Minister of the United Kingdom
• Keir Starmer, Leader of the Labour Party
• Rishi Sunak, Chancellor of the Exchequer
• Michael Gove, Minister for the Cabinet Office
• Andy Burnham, Mayor of Greater Manchester

Johnson vs Sunak

• Redfield and Wilton: "At this moment, which of the following individuals do you think would be the better Prime Minister for the United Kingdom?"
• Ipsos MORI: "Who do you think would make the most capable Prime Minister"
• J.L. Partners: "Of the following two politicians, who do you think would make the best Prime Minister?"
