Why did YouGov restart its poll?

YouGov paused its regular voting intention tracker in December 2023, citing a need to review its methodology. It restarted in January 2025, meaning comparisons to polls before that date aren't directly comparable. This makes Reform's current 20% a new low since the restart.
