One in four 2024 Labour voters regret voting for them

More than half of voters have a lower opinion of the prime minister after his first six months in power

Research from More in Common found that 24 per cent of Labour voters regret backing Sir Keir Starmer's party at the election. Amongst those aged 65-74, this rose to 41 per cent.

The poll, which was carried out for LBC, found that overall, more than half of all voters now have a lower opinion of Starmer's government after their first six months in power.

More in Common's poll found that the public see these two policies, along with the government's decision to not compensate WASPI women for pension changes, as being more damaging to Labour than the Partygate scandal was for the Conservatives.

And a majority of voters (54 per cent) are pessimistic that the current government will deliver the change they promised at the election last year.

However, the public are seemingly divided over what they think Labour should be prioritising over the coming years. According to the poll, the top issues for voters are the NHS (26 per cent), the economy (26 per cent) and immigration (20 per cent).

This comes ahead of a speech the Prime Minister will deliver on Monday outlining his government's plans to cut the NHS waiting list.

Since coming to power, a number of polls have found that Starmer's popularity has plummeted with voters.

One poll last October found that he was less popular than Nigel Farage with voters.
