The results were revealed as new figures showed a surge in adultery since the UK voted to leave Europe three years ago.

Cheating is booming in Doncaster with 1,689 people having an affair - a 8% rise in the last year, according to IllicitEncounters.com Infidelity Index

Registrations to extra-marital dating sites have shot up by 27% since 2016.

IllicitEncounters, with the highest number of members in the UK, has welcomed 42,000 new members alone since the referendum vote - similar to the number of new members the Tory Party has attracted over the same period.

Both Boris and Farage have split with their wives since the Brexit vote.

And the success of adulterous politicians is seen as giving “permission to cheat” to adulterers who view being unfaithful as no barrier to career advancement.

Adulterers are overwhelmingly in favour of Brexit with 72% voting to leave Europe against 28% supporting Remain.

This is reflected in General Election voting intentions with 36% backing Farage’s Brexit Party, 28% for the Tories, 20% for Labour, 10% for the Liberal Democrats and 6% for the Greens.

Jessica Leoni, relationship expert for IllicitEncounters.com, said: “Obviously adulterers back Boris in a straight fight with Jeremy Hunt - they want one of their own in Number 10!

"No surprise that he is more popular with men than women. Women are going to look on him less favourably because of his past affairs.

"Boris is still the overwhelming favourite to win the contest despite the chaos in his private life.

“If the nation is prepared to turn a blind eye to Boris being unfaithful, then there is a feeling that cheating will be normalised amongst the general population, too.

“Boris’s election will give adulterers the permission to cheat.

“We are increasingly sharing similar attitudes to the French who expect their politicians to be unfaithful and have elected one adulterer after another to be President.

“It shows we are all growing up about sex and not being slaves to fidelity.”
