"Sir Keir Starmer’s approval rating has collapsed more significantly after winning an election than any other prime minister in modern history, a new poll has shown.
Following the July election, which saw the Labour Party win a landslide majority of 174 seats, the prime minister approval rating reached a high of plus 11.
But by October, just days before Rachel Reeves’ Budget on Wednesday, new polling from More in Common showed that the prime minister’s personal approval rating has fallen to -38 – a net drop of 49 points.
His rating is now lower than that of former prime minister Rishi Sunak, which now sits at -31 following an increase of six points since he lost the election.

KS shouldn't be surprised. The patronising and caring words he used yesterday saying how much he understood how hard it was for country people to move around, so he was imposing a cap of £3 on bus fares!!!! Does he think we don't know that the current cap is £2 (if you have a bus that is). So it could cost another £2 to go shopping, but he's being kind to us...........eh.....!
"Was itChristine Keeler who said "Well he would (say that), wouldn't he"."
No, that was her mate, Mandy Rice-Davies, jourdain.
It was during the trial (for living off immoral earnings) of "society osteopatth" Stephen Ward. The prosecution alleged that Mandy and Christine were paid for sex by members of the British elite. Ward's counsel pointed out that Lord Astor denied an affair with her, or even having met her. She responded with her cheeky and now famous riposte "Well he would, wouldn't he?"
This response is now known as "MRDA" (Mandy Rice-Davies applies).
