Starmer approval rating hits record low of 18%

UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer's approval rating has plummeted to a record low of 18%, according to a new IPSOS poll. The survey also reveals a significant drop in support among his own voter base, with only 41% of those who backed his Labour Party in the 2024 election still expressing support for him. This decline comes amid ongoing economic pressures linked to the conflict in Iran and domestic political challenges facing his government.
