LABOUR’S honeymoon period has shown signs of waning as a survey today reveals the majority of the public thinks Britain is “moving in the wrong direction.”

Ipsos polling conducted between August 9-12 showed a post-general election drop in favourability for Sir Keir Starmer and his Cabinet after far-right rioting gripped the country.

The pollster’s senior director of UK politics, Gideon Skinner, said Labour and Sir Keir are “still enjoying a moderate honeymoon period” with their popularity still higher than the Tories or before the general election was called.
