Starmer doesn’t have to call an election before 2029. And Labour has a huge majority in Parliament (no coalition was necessary).
Are there enough reasonable people remaining in Labour to force Starmer out?
An Ipsos poll from mid-December 2024 reports that only 27% of Britons are satisfied with Starmer's performance, while 61% express dissatisfaction, resulting in a net satisfaction score of -34.
Additionally, a recent poll suggests that if a general election were held today, Labour could lose nearly 200 seats, reducing their count from 411 to 228. This would result in a highly fragmented political landscape, with no party able to form a majority.
Of course, since an election isn't imminent, these numbers serve only as a warning rather than an immediate threat.
That said, I don't think we'll have to wait until 2029.
