Approval Ratings

  • YouGov confirms governments low approval rating

    YouGov, the polling and survey company, has come out with an interesting approval rating for Sir Keir Starmer MP (Holborn and St Pancras/Labour), and his Labour-run government.

    It shows a dip to 11%, trending at the lowest point of the public’s approval for him so far.

    His disapproval rating stands at 70%, a huge number and surely a sign that things are getting worse for the Prime Minister. As far as our electoral process goes, it’s not a good omen for his re-election chances.

  • Gov popularity stable

    According to YouGov polling the governments approval rating has stayed at 23% since 26 August. Its disapproval rating has decreased slightly by one percentage point to sit at 50%.

    However, dismay has increased since the 4 July election. Its reaction to riots, ongoing pay disputes, and discontent over illegal immigration all might have contributed to the stats.
