Fair play to Labour, tremendous achievement. They've managed in 8 months to get to the same polling position it took the Tories 14 years to get to. Incompetent, nasty, free loading liars who still haven't got a clue. Their failure is enabling Farage and Tories.
Government approval has fallen to just 14%, Labour's lowest to date, and similar to the 15% who approved of the Conservative government in our last poll before the 2024 election
Approve: 14% (-2 from 8-10 Feb)
