Starmer shedding support among both Labour and Tory voters

"It's like the fable, you know the one where the dog's got a bone..."

Sir Keir Starmer’s bid to win over voters from the right seems to have backfired spectacularly after he shedded support on both sides.

In a moment that has been compared to the fable of The Dog and His Bone, the Labour leader’s net satisfaction dropped to 19 per cent among those on the left after reaching dizzying heights of 66 per cent in June of last year.

Support among Conservative voters also plummeted to -15 per cent while among all voters it is now at -9 per cent, the IpsosMORI study shows.

In September of last year Starmer set out his vision for a new-look Labour, imitating many aspects of Boris Johnson’s Conservatives with a family-first, nationalistic rebrand.

He since described the Labour movement as being “very patriotic” and was also forced to distance himself from a leaked strategy document in The Guardian which suggested the party should make “use of the (Union) flag, veterans (and) dressing smartly” as part of a radical rebranding.

Since you are here

Since you are here, we wanted to ask for your help.

Journalism in Britain is under threat. The government is becoming increasingly authoritarian and our media is run by a handful of billionaires, most of whom reside overseas and all of them have strong political allegiances and financial motivations.

Our mission is to hold the powerful to account. It is vital that free media is allowed to exist to expose hypocrisy, corruption, wrongdoing and abuse of power. But we can't do it without you.
