SIR KEIR STARMER’S popularity, never high, is hitting new lows according to the latest opinion polling.
A survey carried out by More in Common found that the Prime Minister’s personal approval rating is now minus 16, a drop of 27 per cent since the general election.
And two-thirds of voters believe that Sir Keir’s government is more interested in serving itself than the wider public, likely a result of the cronyism scandals that have beset his administration.

If Labour MPs who rebelled over the welfare reforms expected to be listened to, they shouldn’t have underestimated the vindictiveness of the Starmer regime. But a new left party that might rehome them is yet to be established, writes ANDREW MURRAY
