Keir Starmer humiliated as new poll reveals just how many people ‘regret’ voting Labour
A new poll has issued another damning blow to Sir Keir Starmer and Labour after the party’s walloping in last week’s local elections. Among all major political parties, those who voted for Labour in the 2024 General Election have the lowest confidence in their decision.

More than 2,100 UK adults took part in the survey between April 25 and 28 which was commissioned by the Institute of Research and Reforms (IRR) International and conducted by Savanta for GB News. Almost a third of Labour voters polled (29%) say they believe they now made the wrong choice on the ballot paper last July when Sir Keir’s party won by a landslide. Meanwhile, 14% and 12% of Tory and Lib Dem voters said they regret their choice.

The poll found 64% of Labour voters still backed the decision they made at last year’s election – significantly less than Conservative and Liberal Democrat voters (83%) and Reform (81%).

The survey also suggested a number of areas that voters think Labour is currently not getting it right.

Some 62% said Labour poorly understand the impact of the cost of living crisis, with 58%, 55% and 52% saying the same regarding immigration, housing and employment and healthcare respectively.

It also found 49% of respondents said the Government was failing to understand issues around public transport, while 72% said ministers are misunderstanding how immigration is impacting communities, GB News reported.

Ali Rehman Malik, Chairman of IRR International, said: “This poll should serve as an urgent call to action for every major political party but especially for Labour, which has lost the confidence of nearly a third of its own voters.”
