British politics in 2024: Starmer's approval drops as economic struggles and policy backlash grow

2024 was a year of highs and lows for the British Prime Minister, Keir Starmer.
He won a landslide in July's 2024 general election.
However, since then polls suggest that the Labour leader has lost significant public support.

Al Jazeera’s Sonia Gallego reports from London, where she examines the reasons behind the party's plummeting popularity.

I'm glad I didn't trust him from the beginning.

I will live this winter thanks to family but I not face this again because I will ensure I am not here. I do not want to be part of such a party or people. Starmer is a narcissist and looks only to his own wealth and status. Uk should be better than this

Tories ruled dismally for 14 years despite these 'popularity' ratings. So long as Starmer can turn the ship around he'll be fine come next election

You can bet UK will change the next 5 PMs in less than 3.years and they will still want to change them!

🧐country would save in cannabis charges and wasted police/present spaces so real criminals like assault/murder/rape charges could be dealt with rather than prison space/police officers being taken up by some guy for his plants because in which world does it make sense to have real criminals running the streets why people are in prison for a plant the country would benefit hugely all medical patients could grow their own no one priced out of medication from private clinics and think of all the wasted tax money when police officers are called out and have to deal with people who are medical patients because of a smell I imagine it can be difficult to tell the difference between an legal and illegal smell lol
