With the SNP going against the Labour Customs Union, it seems safe to say that Britain will be going down the Brexit option.

Also, if No-Deal Brexit occurs, PM Corbyn becomes a 95% possibility, just due to the unpopularity of such a decision and the horserace between the two parties. Brexit would basically give the Labour Party control of government after the next election(whenever that is).

This is the first poll with the Conservatives not being in either 1st or 2nd place

No there were a few polls where they were third in the early 80s (when the SDP were surging) and in 1993 at the height of the Major government's unpopularity. I don't think they've ever dropped as low as 19% though. The Tory+Labour share at 46% is the lowest I can find (previous low was 46.5% in a MORI poll in December 1981).

I mean for the current cycle.

I have to hand it to Monroe, he was able to turn a chat about British politics into a chat on Bernie Sanders.

Anyway, pretty pitiful results from the Euro Elections for both Labour and the Tories(though of course a GE would likely not provide similar results).
