THE battle for Downing Street is effectively neck-and-neck, according to a new election poll which shows Theresa May’s lead over her left-wing rival has drastically fallen.

The Survation poll for Good Moning Britain has put the Tories on 41.5 per cent, which is 16 points lower than the party’s position four weeks ago.

Jeremy Corbyn is closing in on 40.4 per cent, while the Lib Dems are on 6 per cent, leaving Ukip behind on a dismal 3 per cent.

What you are saying is that both candidates are supporting Brexit?

4. Yes; both opposed it during the referendum, but accepted the results

2. Corbyn was definitely surging until the attacks last week...

A few additional survey polls has the Conservatives maybe bouncing back since, tho.

Guess we'll find out tomorrow.
