Astonishingly awful polling for Starmer, who has destroyed his favourability among everyone especially his own voters, while somehow making Farage more popular. If I was Morgan McSweeney, I would quit my job.
Some other ‘highlights’:
‘This is the first time Keir Starmer has recorded a net negative approval rating among Labour voters.’
Labour is now even more unpopular than the lowest point of Corbyn’s leadership.
EDIT:
Just so I can say ‘I told you so’, if:
- There isn’t an all-out war in Europe, and,
- Starmer’s still PM at the next GE
Then he will lose his own seat.
After how he’s carried on, I don’t care about strategic voting anymore. It’s greens all the way for me.
I’m still a member for now, but I’m not surprised people feel that way.
Labour canvasser asked why I wasn’t voting that way at the last GE. I said, “I’m a socialist - honestly, would you*?” and he seemed within a heartbeat of agreeing. The local crowd seemed pretty depressed about chasing the Overton window back then [although obviously they will make sympathetic noises towards anyone they’re talking to, that’s part of the job].
[* This isn’t risking a Reform storm - FPTP and I’m in a solidly Labour ward, but they still bothered to knock on doors, which was eye-opening in itself]
