Labour’s landslide victory was the first of its kind since Tony Blair in 1997, yet not even 100 days in Downing Street, Keir Starmer’s decisions have left Labour voters feeling disappointed and betrayed.

According to recent YouGov tracker data released in late September, Labour’s net favourability rating plummeted from +1 immediately after the election to -27.


Keir Starmer’s own ratings have also sunk from -3 to -30.

A startling 53 per cent of Britons disapprove of the Labour Government’s track record so far having axed Winter Fuel Payments and the Rwanda deportation plan, and claiming the upcoming Budget on October 30 will be “painful”.

In addition, a bungled early release of prisoners to free up space and a large payout to Unions have only dampened the spirits of staunch Labour voters.

Speaking to GB News back in August about the Government’s decision to allow Ofgem to increase the energy price cap by 10 per cent, Nottingham residents gave their verdict on how energy bills will increase by over £100 for the average household.

One resident said: “They [Labour] target people that have gone to work all their lives.

“There are people on benefits who don't need to be on benefits, who are getting three or four times more than we are, the people who have worked.

“I had three jobs at one time when my kids were small.”

Another local in the English town said people are “already struggling” and the latest increase is “bad news” for the working class.

She added: “We're already going through challenges with the economic living crisis, so it's not good news.”

In the exclusive poll for GB News membership respondents, 50 per cent of whom voted Labour, an overwhelming majority (48 per cent) of the 1,414 voters would not vote for Labour, while just two per cent said they would.
