DescriptionNearly half (48%) of Britons think the Labour government is doing badly at running the country, a figure comparable to ratings of Boris Johnson's government. Overall, most of the public (56%) are disappointed in what Labour has done so far.

A new Ipsos poll reveals that the British public continues to be dissatisfied with the Labour Party's performance since assuming government. The poll also shows Prime Minister Keir Starmer and Chancellor Rachel Reeves have not yet managed to reverse the decline in their approval ratings, and concerns about the Labour party’s economic plans (though even less confidence in the Conservatives).

Keir Starmer’s popularity continues to decline: Almost half (48%) of Britons believe Keir Starmer is doing a bad job as Prime Minister, just 23% are positive. This is a slight 3ppt negative swing since November, and much worse than immediately after taking office in July 2024, when 14% said he was doing a bad job.

Government performance under scrutiny: Nearly half (48%) of Britons think the Labour government is doing badly at running the country, a figure comparable to ratings of Boris Johnson's government.
