This survey put the party 20 points ahead, with 36 per cent of people saying they'd back the Labour Party.
Just 16 per cent of people said they would vote for the Tories, while Reform was ahead on 20 per cent support.
Professor Matt Goodwin told GB News that the polling shows "there simply is no mass public enthusiasm for the opposition".
He said: "Overall, only 32 per cent of voters think Britain will be in safe hands with a Labour government while 43 per cent think it will not be in safe hands and the remainder 25 per cent do not know.
"This is yet more evidence for a broader point I have made throughout this campaign – there simply is no mass public enthusiasm for the opposition Labour Party.
"While Labour is certainly ahead in the polls only a minority of voters are genuinely excited, enthusiastic, and supportive of the party, its leader, and policies.
"This suggests to me that the likely incoming Labour government, faced with a constrained economy and widespread public disillusionment, will likely be unpopular very quickly".
Goodwin added: "Overall, 24 per cent of voters think the party that wins the election will make a ‘big difference’ to their life, 28 per cent think it will make a ‘small difference’ and 20 per cent think it will make ‘no difference at all’, with the rest saying they do not know.
LATEST DEVELOPMENTS:
"This is a reminder that apathy and disillusionment remain widespread in the country, as does the feeling, held by many, that politics actually makes little meaningful difference to people’s lives".
The polling, conducted by People Polling for GB News, spoke to 1,260 people on July 2.
