The leftist Labour Party government in Britain has fallen to its lowest approval rating amid failures to deliver on key promises such as turning around the economy and stemming the tide of illegal migration into the country.
Quickly approaching one year on from winning a landslide election victory, trust in Sir Keir Starmer’s Labour government has utterly evaporated, with a survey from YouGov finding this week recording the party’s lowest level of support since the election last July.
According to the pollster, just 14 per cent of the voting public approve of Labour’s job performance, while a staggering 68 per cent said that they disapproved.
The support for Starmer’s government fell by five points over the past week alone, YouGov found. This coincided with the Spring Statement on the economy from Chancellor Rachel Reeves, the head of the British Treasury Department.
In a move taken as a betrayal by many left-wing supporters of the government, Reeves announced large cuts to the welfare state, which are expected to save the government around £4.8 billion.
