Labour has been tipped for disaster in Thursday's European elections as a new poll suggested it would finish behind Ukip.
The governing party trails both the Conservatives and Nigel Farage's anti-EU party in a YouGov poll.
Among people certain to vote, Labour can count on just 16% support, just ahead of the Liberal Democrats on 15% and behind Ukip, which stands on 18%, it found.
The Tories are set to remain the largest British party in the European Parliament with a reduced majority of votes at 26%, the poll concluded.
The survey of 4,014 people, commissioned by the Daily Telegraph, also supported predictions that some of the minor parties could benefit from the MPs' expenses scandal.
The Greens were tipped to pick up 10% while the BNP could record 5%, enough to hand the far-right party its first seat in Brussels.
