		</div><p>Jeremy Corbyn has overtaken Theresa May for the first time on the question of who voters think would make the best British prime minister, a poll suggests.</p>
<p>The YouGov/Times poll showed the Labour leader on 35%, ahead of the British Prime Minister on 34%. Nearly a third (30%) said they were unsure.</p>
<p>It comes with Mrs May under intense pressure following a disastrous general election in which the Tories lost their majority and her authority was severely diminished after her highly personal campaign appeared to backfire.</p>
<p>In the days before the vote (June 5-7), Mrs May was ahead on 43% to Mr Corbyn&#8217;s 32%, suggesting the aftermath of the election, in which the PM has been criticised over her response to the Grenfell Tower disaster, may have had an effect.</p>
<p>Mrs May has also been forced to ditch a number of unpopular manifesto promises from her first Queen&#8217;s Speech, which set out the Government&#8217;s legislative agenda for the next two years.</p>
<p>Mr Corbyn used his response to the Queen&#8217;s Speech in the House of Commons to claim Labour is now a &#8220;government in waiting&#8221;, although he was mockingly praised by the PM for having &#8220;fought a spirited campaign and come a good second&#8221;.</p>
<p>*YouGov surveyed 1,670 British adults from June 21-22.</p>
