Most dishonest headline of an opinion poll ever, where less than one third of those polled think Keir Starmer will be out of office
Most dishonest headline of an opinion poll ever, where less than one third of those polled think Keir Starmer will be out of office
I must admitt I ws suroprized b the massive win by Labor in the June elections nd wndered whether it will work out - since in other countries in Europe the trend was to get of socialist and left-wing Governments - but in the UK the trend was different. To be quirte frank I did believe the support for Labor will evaporate quickly but I did expect it to last longe than a year,
Now this report that it hsppen in a shorte time and the magntde is going to send Labor and Conservatives into panic especially -
1 Since the departure of the UK .from the EU the political leadership of the UK was all weak shit in the Biden category - totally unrelaible and without any principles. The result s that compared to them Starmer looks like a srar.
2 Like the above leaders it took less than three months to show that Starmer s as incomptent as Biden turen out to be. Staner was on the take - but unlike Biden he is not a bribetaker on large scale/
Now he broke the record in stupidity and he is even less popular than Johnson was, He as so bad that some people prefer Johnson to him as PM. According to 20% of the USvoters wants Farage as PM.
One wonde whether the UK would end up in chaos and the Conservvaives have no altenative leade fhv bn getting shit ratings as well,
It is such early days in Labour's term, another 4 years left.
The conservatives done poorly, and some of the present situation might be down to them. Brexit, certainly so.
Brexit had nothing to do with the disastrous economy but added to the flooding of the UK by illegal migrants,
After you idiots praised Biden in his first yesr - despite warning by thinking people that he is courting disarter he started losing support rapidly and Starmer is in the same situation as Biden was in early 2021 - so he is just doing what Biden did in the USA and the way for him will be the same way, Although it is difficult for Labor to change their leader - a rebellion aongst members inParliament bya motion of no cnfidence is the rebels of Labor who would try to save their political carreers is likely by a motion of no confidence they supported and Stamer would be a goner.
In the previous election the working class deserted the Labor Party and that will be a diaster for many of their present postion as members of Parliament/ Reason - the same as happened to Clinton in 2016 and Biden in 2024 - namely that the working class is supporting Farage like happened in the brexit referendum and in the previous UK Perliamentary election.
So Starmer is likely to be out of his Prime Minister position wihin the next year.

Th following report ame from the Daily Mail:-
"Sir Keir Starmer will be ousted as Prime Minister within a year, an exclusive poll for The Mail on Sunday has predicted – with furious voters attacking his poor handling of the economy, the NHS, immigration and the cost-of-living crisis.
Nearly a third of all Britons polled in the ‘state of the nation’ survey expect the Labour leader to last another year at most, with more than two thirds (68 per cent) saying he is doing ‘badly’, just six months into the job.
And in news that will worry both Labour and the Conservatives, one in five voters thinks that Nigel Farage will be Britain’s next Prime Minister.
The bombshell poll comes as speculation mounts in Westminster over Sir Keir’s future after a dismal start to his premiership.
Since Labour’s landslide victory last July, the party has been dogged by a series of missteps, including rows over changes to farmers’ inheritance tax reliefs, a tax raid on private school fees and freebies from donors and lobbyists.
Last night, one Labour MP said privately: ‘If this poll doesn’t ring alarm bells in No10, then we really are doomed.
‘Sadly, it confirms what I and other Labour colleagues are now finding on the doorstep.
‘There never was much support for Keir. But after a catalogue of blunders – from scrapping winter fuel payments to hiking taxes – what little support there was for the Prime Minister has collapsed.’
The exclusive Deltapoll survey reveals that 69 per cent think the country is heading in the wrong direction, with the cost-of-living crisis and the state of the NHS topping the list of concerns.
Some 33 per cent said they are particularly worried about the economy, while 14 per cent said they are anxious about the effects of high taxes on themselves and their families.
Fifteen per cent are concerned about record immigration, with more than six in ten saying they think the number of immigrants coming to the UK should be decreased. Some 68 per cent want to see the Government introduce a cap on the number of legal migrants allowed into the UK each year.
Despite this, Labour still lead on voting intention, with 30 per cent of those polled saying they plan to support the party at the next General Election, compared with 23 per cent for the Conservatives and 22 per cent for Reform.
However Labour are behind the Tories on both leadership and economic management. Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch and shadow chancellor Mel Stride are narrowly seen as a better alternative to Sir Keir and Chancellor Rachel Reeves in handling the economy.
Among Labour voters, Deputy Prime Minister Angela Rayner tops the list as the likely successor in No10, while respondents who voted Conservative at the last election support a comeback for Boris Johnson to frontline politics.
The polling comes as MPs tomorrow debate a petition calling for a rerun of the General Election, after it gained 2.8million signatures.
The result of the Westminster Hall debate cannot cause a re-run of the vote, but the popular petition has been used by Ms Badenoch to taunt Sir Keir that it showed ‘two million people asking him to go’.
Last night, Labour sources said that pressure will mount on the Prime Minister if he suffers a string of losses in May’s local elections and any by-elections, and if he fails to get the small boats crisis under control.
One added last night: ‘The party will turn against him.
‘It is very difficult to oust a Labour leader, but he could become a lame duck prime minister and the pressure would mount on him to go.’
