Tory and Labour voters are united in their opposition to the mini Budget but disagree on other things - including whether they want Boris Johnson back, a focus group organised by LBC has suggested.

The News Agents teamed up with research group More in Common to get a representative group together in South Swindon - a marginal seat - to find out why Labour has such a significant lead over the Tories in the polls.

The group revealed differing opinions on the leaders of the major parties, but a shared opposition to Kwasi Kwarteng's mini Budget.
