Liz Truss is already more unpopular than Boris Johnson or Jeremy Corbyn ever was, according to a YouGov poll released on Wednesday (October 5). The poll shows just 14% of the public now say they have a favourable impression of the Prime Minister compared with 26% who said so between 21-22 September.
The poll may make grim reading for Team Truss. Nearly three-quarters – 73% – now see the Prime Minister in an unfavourable light, including more than half – 55% – who see her very unfavourably.
That gives her a net favourability rating of minus 59, depths not plumbed by Mr Johnson, who hit minus 53 in July or Mr Corbyn who fell to minus 55 in June 2019. YouGov surveyed 1,751 British adults on October 1-2.
