Keir Starmer will be out of No 10 within a year, poll predicts: Furious voters deliver damning verdict on PM amid anger over migration, winter fuel payments and inheritance tax on farmers

Sir Keir Starmer will be ousted as Prime Minister within a year, an exclusive poll for The Mail on Sunday has predicted – with furious voters attacking his poor handling of the economy, the NHS, immigration and the cost-of-living crisis.

Nearly a third of all Britons polled in the 'state of the nation' survey expect the Labour leader to last another year at most, with more than two thirds (68 per cent) saying he is doing 'badly', just six months into the job.

And in news that will worry both Labour and the Conservatives, one in five voters thinks that Nigel Farage will be Britain's next Prime Minister.

The bombshell poll comes as speculation mounts in Westminster over Sir Keir's future after a dismal start to his premiership.

Since Labour's landslide victory last July, the party has been dogged by a series of missteps, including rows over changes to farmers' inheritance tax reliefs, a tax raid on private school fees and freebies from donors and lobbyists.

Last night, one Labour MP said privately: 'If this poll doesn't ring alarm bells in No10, then we really are doomed.

'Sadly, it confirms what I and other Labour colleagues are now finding on the doorstep.

'There never was much support for Keir. But after a catalogue of blunders – from scrapping winter fuel payments to hiking taxes – what little support there was for the Prime Minister has collapsed.'

This guy is roundly hated in the UK and no more fiercely hated than Trudeau in Canada. The Canuks would skin him alive if they could get their hands on him and yet he's been put in office three times. That's an accomplishment in itself. So if these two chuckle heads ARE so hated, who keeps putting them in office?

Yes. And no doubt these are the same idiots that voted him into office.

One of the positives of the parliamentary system is that they can hold an election at any time.

How do they get a new election? Labour has a huge parliamentary majority, default approved for another 4 years. Presumably, regardless of their constituents, they think they’re doing fine and enjoying their power trip. Peeling off enough of such for a no confidence vote hardly seems likely. Can King Charles do something, I don’t know? But given that he’s fighting an unknown cancer and sure seems pro-Islam himself, I have no hope from him. Maybe the cancer will end him and William (pushed by Kate) can rescue his country. But otherwise UK is stuck with the hoping the folks who knew this PM well and anointed him as their party leader, doing a bulk 180 to sanity. Liberal woke ideologues just don’t do that, they double down on their bad.

In uk they ignore for next year his opinions on
migration, fuel payments, and inheritance tax,
but in the USA his allowing Moslems and judges
to rape girls over and over would have
removed him TONIGHT.

Balderdash... That’s not how it works in Great Briton... He’s the leader of the Labour party... They will remain in office for another four and half years and as long as they keep him as leader, he will be the Prime Minister.

The Indigenous Brit did not vote for their destruction. Just like California, the system is gamed to allow liberals to win. It’s going to require people marching onto Parliament by the millions and drag the politicians out and install faithful Brits into power.

Maybe there is something that allows the king to dissolve parliament; but either way you’re right it’s a 5 year gig so to get it done there has to be major social upheaval after which, ideally, enough Labor will vote no confidence for the good solidarity of the country.

Keir Starmer and Justin Castro are both Klaus Schwab WEF and demonic Obama sycophants, just as Jacinda Ardern (NZ) and Dan Andrews (AUS) acted and Pope Francis is still serving.

The legal rights, concerns and welfare of the people they are empowered to work on their behalf never enter into their corrupted tyrannical thinking.
