"In the wake of a gruelling by-election in Caerphilly, both Prime Minister Keir Starmer and Tory Leader Kemi Badenoch have taken a three-point hit to their approval ratings this week, according to the latest polling from Opinium. Starmer languishes on -45, while Badenoch sits at net -17. Reform leader Nigel Farage has also declined in popularity this week, down to -13 (down 7 points)."
"This is the ninth consecutive Opinium poll in which Keir Starmer's net approval rating has been on net -40 or below, suggesting his unpopularity has remained consistently strong since early August. However, Reform continues to lead on voting intention among the public at 30% (-2), followed by Labour on 20% (-2). The Conservatives are unchanged at 18%, followed by the Lib Dems on 12% (+1) and the Greens 12% (+2)."
"The public express greater faith in the Tories on setting tax levels, with a 6-point lead for the Conservatives over Labour. However, neither party commands strong confidence overall, with "neither" the most frequent response to who the public trust most on the economy. The only economic issue where Labour leads among the public is on improving public services (+9%), though trust in both parties remains limited."
Recent Opinium polling shows Prime Minister Keir Starmer and Tory leader Kemi Badenoch each losing three approval points, with Starmer at net -45 and Badenoch at net -17. Reform leader Nigel Farage fell to net -13. Reform leads voting intention at 30%, Labour at 20%, Conservatives 18%, Liberal Democrats 12% and Greens 12%. Nine consecutive Opinium polls have recorded Starmer at net -40 or lower. Conservatives lead Labour on five of six key economic issues, including a six-point lead on setting tax levels, while Labour leads only on improving public services (+9%). A majority (54%) support conditional withdrawal of ILR; 22% view ILR as permanent.
