Sir Keir Starmer’s popularity has taken a nosedive—again—and this time it’s hit rock bottom. After a brief honeymoon period following Labour’s massive General Election win last year, where the party secured a whopping 174-seat majority, things have spiralled rapidly in the opposite direction.
A new YouGov poll has painted a grim picture for the Prime Minister, with his net favourability now at a painful 46%. That’s the worst rating he’s ever had. It’s not just a minor dip either—his approval rating has crashed by 12 points in just a month. This comes right after Labour’s drubbing in the local elections, where they shed hundreds of councillors and lost key battles to Nigel Farage’s Reform UK, reported the Express.
