Starmer's poll ratings slump
Prime Minister Keir Starmer during his speech and press conference in the Rose Garden at 10 Downing Street, London, August 27, 2024
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.
