British Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s Conservative party has a 15 percentage-point lead over the opposition Labour Party, according to a poll published on Saturday, ahead of a possible national election aimed at breaking the impasse over Brexit.

The Conservatives garnered 37% in the Opinium poll for the Observer newspaper, while Labour took 22%.

The result comes after a difficult first few weeks in power for Johnson, who is yet to win a vote in the House of Commons and has seen his parliamentary majority wiped out after as many as 20 Tory MPs rebelled against the party line on Brexit.
