Starmer set for ‘catastrophic week’ as Labour vote collapses | The Daily T

With 48 hours to go before the local and devolved elections, the verdict seems to be in already: the public hates Sir Keir Starmer and the two main parties – and many will never vote for Labour or the Conservatives again. That is according to new polling that found only one in seven voters who have abandoned those parties would return if Reform UK or the Green Party failed to deliver change. The survey also showed an appetite for NHS reform and higher taxes on big business and the rich. Camilla Tominey and Tim Stanley are joined by Scarlett Maguire and Lee Cain, the pollsters behind the findings, to understand why the public is losing faith in politics. Meanwhile, they discuss the state of the campaign trail, with Kemi Badenoch clashing with a pro-Palestine heckler and Zack Polanski’s poll ratings tanking after his row with the police. ► Subscribe to The Telegraph: https://www.telegraph.co.uk/customer/... ► Get the latest headlines: https://www.telegraph.co.uk/?WT.mc_id... ► Sign up to The Telegraph's free new daily newsletter, From the Editor, bringing you the latest news, features and analysis from the Telegraph newsroom: https://www.telegraph.co.uk/customer/... #politics, #UKpolitics, #elections, #localelections, #KeirStarmer, #LabourParty, #ConservativeParty, #ReformUK, #GreenParty, #polling, #publicopinion, #voterbehavior, #NHSreform, #taxpolicy, #campaigntrail, #UKnews, #politicalanalysis, #trustinpolitics, #KemiBadenoch, #ZackPolanski, #proPalestine, #politicaldebate
