A new poll showcases a significant decrease in approval for Rishi Sunak, with voters favouring past leaders and Keir Starmer’s honesty. Holly Valance endorses Reform UK, adding a celebrity voice to political conversation.
A recent poll has revealed a significant dip in UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak’s popularity, with participants labelling him as “weak” and “useless.” The JL Partners survey indicates a preference among voters, even within the Conservative Party, for former leaders like Boris Johnson and Nigel Farage, or the late Margaret Thatcher, over Sunak. Labour’s Keir Starmer, despite being seen as “boring,” received positive remarks for his competence and honesty, marking a shift in voter values towards truthfulness in leadership.
In other political news, former “Neighbours” actress Holly Valance has announced her support for the right-wing political group Reform UK, praising its new member, former Conservative MP Lee Anderson. Valance, who attended the launch event for the Popular Conservatism movement in London, expressed her disillusionment with the Conservative Party and her approval of Anderson’s consistency in his beliefs. Her endorsement adds a celebrity dimension to the political discourse, particularly as Reform UK, under Richard Tice and Nigel Farage, focuses on debates around immigration and net zero policies.
