Sunak and Starmer release Easter messages as major poll predicts Tory election losses

Rishi Sunak's Easter message coincides with the release of a major survey that suggests the Tories could be reduced to fewer than 100 MPs at the general election, ITV News' Lewis Warner reports

However, the PM's message coincides with the release of a major survey that suggests the Tories could be reduced to fewer than 100 MPs at the general election.Could the Tories be wiped out this year? Or can attack ads save them? Meanwhile Sir Keir, who hopes to be in No 10 by the end of the year, will use his Easter message to reflect on a "time of optimism and new beginnings".Speaking during a visit to St Martin in the Fields church, where the Labour leader met with Rev Dr Sam Wells and members of the church, Sir Keir says: "The Easter story is one of hope and renewal, of overcoming adversity and light prevailing over darkness.

"This Easter I’d like to express my gratitude to the Christian community in the UK and beyond, for their generosity and compassion. But a model of what would happen if Reform UK did not stand suggested the Tories would win 150 seats – still a crushing defeat, but potentially giving Mr Sunak, or more likely his replacement, a better chance to rebuild.
