MOSCOW (Sputnik) — The Labour Party has opened up a four-point lead over the Conservative Party less than six weeks before the UK general election, according to a new YouGov opinion poll for the Sunday Times.

The Labour party received 36 percent of votes in support, while the Conservatives got 32 percent after the Thursday TV debate between Labour’s leader Ed Miliband and Conservatives’ leader, British Prime Minister David Cameron.
