According to a YouGov poll taken on 20 May 2024, 69% of people said they disapproved of the Government, against 15% who said they approved.
It’s a shockingly poor statistic for a Prime Minister who’s tried hard to remain in power for a reason, from proposals on AI to his own Rwanda plan.
It hasn’t worked, however, according to any plan that may have been devised by strategists in Number 10.
This stat is a poor reflection of a Prime Minister as he goes into battle on election day on 4 July.
Indeed, it’s also something which Sir Keir Starmer – his only opposition – can use to his own advantage, as he also fights a campaign.
