LONDON: Rishi Sunak’s popularity rating sank to its lowest level since he became UK prime minister in October, highlighting the growing challenge he faces in leading his party to victory at the next general election.
Some 65% of Britons now have an unfavorable view of the prime minister compared with 25% who see him in a positive light, according to a YouGov poll of 2,151 British adults published Wednesday. That gives Sunak a net favorability rating of minus 40% — some six points lower than in June, according to the polling company.
