Labour's lowest poll ever

The grown ups and centrist dads continuing their mission, headlong, arrogant, and blinkered, to destroy the party of the working class.


Our latest Westminster voting intention (26-27 Oct) has Labour on their lowest figure ever recorded by YouGov, with the Greens on their highest

Reform UK: 27% (+1 from 19-20 Oct)
Labour: 17% (-3)
Conservatives: 17% (=)
Greens: 16% (+1)
Lib Dems: 15% (=)
SNP: 3% (-1)

Every time Reeves or Starmer open their mouths they go down in the poils a little more. Think they are going further and faster to try to get to single figures They are Reforms greatest asset

Absolutely... another few months and it will be Reform and the Greens in the top 2 spots.

The real big losers here are LD for me - they had a 10% head start on every one else and carry some longer term credibility, but they're seemingly incapable of capitalising on their massive opportunity to come across like the adults in the room.

Here’s something for our middle aged and older Centrist Dads…

‘If a general election happened tomorrow and only people under 50 were allowed to vote, Zack Polanski would become the UK's next prime minister, according to new polling from YouGov.

The Green party is currently winning an astounding 25% of the vote among under-50s, and is even further ahead - at 39% - among 18 to 24-year-olds.
Labour, meanwhile, is polling worse than ever before, with 50% of voters defecting since 2024. 18% of those who supported Keir Starmer just last year now say they would vote Green, 13% Lib Dem, 11% Reform and 5% Tory.

Reform is still polling on top among the general population, with 27% of the overall vote. Nigel Farage's party remains particularly popular with older people, especially 50 to 64-year-olds who gave it 36% of their vote.

But Reform does seem to have plateaued for the time being, polling just under its May and September high of 29%.

The Green party, meanwhile, has seen a startling rise in vote share in recent months, gaining six points in the polls since Polanski became leader at the beginning of September. In 2024, the party won just 6.7% of the overall vote - it's now polling at 16%.’

At some point Labour have to address the fact they are pleasing a teeny tiny percentage of the population, who are white collar, over 50, decent pension, relatively healthy, public sector/professionals, no mortgage and have done very well out of free higher education, affordable homes, inheritance etc.

'If a general election happened tomorrow' Arf. On that basis I'm expecting you to put your money on Arsenal, Coventry, Stockport and Walsall to win their leagues then.

What for Dekka, you simply go with your feed and moan about everything going. If you really think that today’s world is the same as in three or four years time then you are pant wetting in the extremes. You don’t recognise the basics of why we are here and expect it all solved instantly like it’s a video game.

I don’t have a feed, I’m not even on Twitter. Your Jack-in-the-box defence of a piss poor leader and his advisers is getting embarrassing. At what point do you think in the next three years are they going to turnaround the shambles that is the Labour leadership? 

Funny, that everything I’ve said over the last 18mths the now Deputy Leader has said one way or another with regards to Starmer and his advisers.

Funny that, maybe you should be as sanguine (i think that’s the word used around here) about the situation as I am. You’re ’I want it now or I’ll scweem’ approach to everything is about to realise that some of us know that change will come one way or another.

You mean the Blue Labour approach is enabling, if not actively promoting Reform and because you’re comfortably protected you don’t really give a shit.You remind me these days of a certain ex-poster.

Down to 15% now
The centrist dads won't be happy until Labour are on 2% or less.
Kinnock, Blair, Mandelson etc all said it would be the left that destroyed the Labour party. Instead it is the right that will do it. Even Kinnock wouldn't approve of this gang.

Westminster Voting Intention:

RFM: 33% (+1)
GRN: 18% (+1)
CON: 16% (=)
LAB: 15% (-1)
LDM: 11% (-1)
SNP: 3% (=)
