Labour’s poll lead over the Tories has fallen to just five points, while nearly half of those who voted Labour in July say they already feel let down by Keir Starmer’s floundering Government. The Mail has more.
A new survey by Techne puts Sir Keir Starmer’s party below 30 points, little more than three months since his landslide victory.
A separate poll by YouGov shows that almost four-in-10 voters (39%) believe the country has got worse in the past 100 days. Just 9% say it has got better – and not even a quarter of those who voted Labour in July have seen an improvement.
It comes after a major row over the decision to cut winter fuel payment handouts for hundreds of thousands of pensioners.
There are also fears of a major round of tax rises in the Budget at the end of the month, despite taxes having risen to a record postwar high under the last Tory Government.
Nearly half (47%) of those who voted Labour in the election told YouGov they had positive expectations of Starmer’s Government but feel let down so far, with only three in ten (30%) feeling Labour has done as well as they had hoped.

Well who’d of thought? It wasn’t obvious in the slightest.

I don’t know why she is so loved and he is so admired. Peter Hitchens said that it was in the 1990s when he appeared on Have I got News For You. The boomer generaton found him to be a comforting and harmless throwback. I suppose the English have an implicit respect for education in classics via the class system. But he never really embodied any of the greats of antiquity. There is so much that could be said with the benefit of knowing Greece and Rome and how much did he actually impart? That tells you something about him. A good teacher could easily inspire a revival of the classics. He had nothing to say except a few self-congratulatory remarks. I daresay he regrets his choice of wife. I say let her be with him forever.
Mummy, where do politicians come from?
Well darling, when a clown and a serial killer love each other very much …..”
Obvious really. Carrie is the only person he had to answer to – and she still is.
Boris – anything for the easy life.
When the left ball is in the right hand and the right ball is in the left, you have the undivided attention of the owner of the balls.
When you have a billiard cue between your legs, a green ball in one hand and a green ball in the other you have the undivided attention of a Leprechaun.
The style of writing to each other shows a lack of maturity and a complete failure to conduct public affairs in an organised, structured way. I guess that reflects their general approach and their immaturity.
why are we cursed with being governed by a combination of antipathy to the British people and juvenile attitudes.
The entire Pharma-ment was reporting to Pharma and the International Cabal which runs our affairs. Doris et al were running nothing.
Carrie might run Doris and might have directed his policy but she is long gone. And yet the same policies are being justified, ‘improved’ and readied for reuse by other actors many of whom are new and were never at the scene of the Rona plandemic crime. Follow that money.
I do recall the fake PCR tests were being shipped as early as 2017, I doubt Carrie had much influence on that or much else with the shamdemic.
Yeah this is all just Westminster tittle-tattle. The forces behind the covid evil and many other evils are many and mighty and global. PM, Carrie et al just useful idiots, or they were “in on it”, whatever “it” exactly turns out to be (my money’s on some US shenanigans, bio security stuff) but either they are utterly contemptible, the whole lot of them, politicians, “scientists” and the rest.
Quite so ToF – this story also has the benefit (for the really evil ones) of ringing true since “dithering Boris” was a plausible meme planted into the msm by Boris’s enemies (mainly remainers) several years ago and readily taken up by the public.
Well no surpises there then.The Pig dictator , totem, is weak, thick as mince and only focuses on getting his leg over .
The country deserves a PM who can at least think clearly and act decisively.
Lets not forget that Princess nut nut has never stood for the role either .
WE DESERVE FAR BETTER THAN THE SHOWER OF IDIOTS WE ARE LIKELY TO GET NEXT YEAR >God help us all
Sinor – please don’t call them idiots, this misses the point completely. They are not idiots – they know perfectly well what they are doing which is, in short, to destroy the UK to make way for the new world order. Similar “idiots” are doing the same thing in every other white western nation state.
The question is that given that such prats take charge by dint of numbers, how does a group possessed of the truth gain ascendency. The real ascendancy will consist in the battles ahead and the destruction of the nonsense. I genuinely believe that the old order is gone. There is no way for a political paty now to assert anything despite their wishes.What will we converge upon? There is a sense that it will be something very different. As long as you are making your life as painful for yourself in every way possible you can’t be argued with. If you aren’t then you are going to be in bad shape on the other side.
We really are governed by childish smug tossers.
I thought Caring Carrie would have had enough work advising Oceana on how to organise a global fish shortage by banning fishing, a meat shortage by banning fertilisers and an energy crisis by banning coal.
This island is made mainly of coal and surrounded by fish. Only an organizing genius could produce a shortage of coal and fish at the same time. [Aneurin Bevan]
Do we attach any credibility to this? Honestly, who cares. It has been blatantly obvious that all those involved were acting on orders outside of Westminster or the UK (The City of London is outside the UK). These ‘tit bits’ mean nothing. We also know that they haven’t cared a jot about elderly folk dying alone or injecting a world with a substance of which no long term research has been done or exists.
I suspect Vallance misspoke when mentioning ‘enthusiasm’, perhaps he meant ‘euthanasia’?
So Carrie was behind the global coordination of the response?
**** off.
Just a cock-up.
Well, she was absolutely ‘on message’. Useful idiot perhaps.
Look at them all, especially the Valance comment, talk about lack of self awareness. What a truly, truly terrible group of people, have they no shame? They are like Rats in a bag.
I don’t think Johnson senior is entirely innocent in this respect, judging by the utter tripe he spouts when in front of a camera.
So the Churchillian Doris turned out to be a weak hen pecked man. It explains the net zero bollux and the ‘show’ holiday in Scotland. Like so many green hypocrites, she has 3 children to monetise & provide her future income. She is our very own Megan Sparkle.
