New Poll Places Kemi Badenoch Ahead of Starmer as UK’s Top Political Leader
A recent survey by More in Common, reported by GB News, shows British-Nigerian Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch with a net approval rating of –9. This leads Prime Minister Keir Starmer, who trails at –42, and other opposition figures like Nigel Farage and Green Party co-leader Zack Polanski, both at –16. Liberal Democrat head Ed Davey scored –11 and Chancellor Rachel Reeves matched Starmer with –41. Political analysts link Badenoch’s surge to her sharp performances during Prime Minister’s Questions and her challenge over the Peter Mandelson document dispute. She has also won strong internal ratings, topping the shadow cabinet approval on ConservativeHome for the third time. As local elections approach, the political landscape remains unpredictable. Reform UK leads at 23% in YouGov polling, followed by Conservatives and Greens at 19%, Labour at 18% and Liberal Democrats at 12%. Experts warn that both major parties could face significant council seat losses.
