Here's all the evidence you need to either show that YouGov ask a very specific group of people their polling questions, or that the great British public are morons with a very short memory.

Really ? Ffs. Did she find 4 billion quid down the back of a sofa ? We'll be back to the old Sun headlines of scrounging families and single parents before the next GE, and Labour will be out again.
I am Labour, I do not want this unless it can be afforded. If my tax goes up for it I'll be livid.

If Hitler was about today, there would be no war to stop him. Everyone would just capitulate and do whatever he wanted.

Trevor Phillips is a real arsehole, isn’t he ? Didn’t he used to be a Blair advisor ? When did he change sides ?

If you HAD to write something, why not say 'Trump continues to be rude to people' ?

So, either people have very very rose tinted glasses ( probably true ) or don't remember how unpopular she was for most of her governance.
Maybe this shows that you don't have to be popular to be a PM.
I fucking hated her then and hate her know, just for the record..

Nathan Gill is no fringe politician.
He was the leader of the Reform Party and before that UKIP in Wales.
A Brexit Party MEP.
A friend and ally of Nigel Farage, who in 2016 called him:
"terrific," and "as honest as the day is long."
This is a MASSIVE story

They must be disappointed that this latest distraction from the Epstein stuff didn't last very long...

That’s the regulator’s bottom line: no proof of causation."

Is there anything in the world that collapses faster than a policy announcement by Reform ? Maybe it should be a new scientific measure ? A 'farage' maybe ? The quickest entropic effect in the universe.
The think tank have said their numbers "should not be used."

Would you believe it, but it turns out Musk is not only a fascist, but also thick as a plank.
He's the embodiment of the Dunning-Kreuger effect but with money.
I am hoping that they are getting more vocal and extreme because they are losing rather than gaining strength.

The right must feel like they are losing the argument.
I can't imagine another reason to suddenly start saying 'lets all forget about left and right'.
The toxicity of the right is showing.
People they have hoodwinked are seeing the veneer stripped off.
They'd never say these things otherwise.
