Labour is more trusted on the economy and business according to a detailed poll of voter intentions carried out by investment platform XTB. The poll of over a 1,000 stock market investors showed Labour was leading the Tories 60-40 on the economy and 54-46 on the stock market.
XTB UK Managing Director Joshua Raymond said: “We were shocked by how strong the pro-Labour feeling is amongst investors. While a lot of people remain undecided on some questions, the overwhelming view is that Labour would be a better custodian of the economy than the Tories.”
