SIR KEIR STARMER’S public favourability rating has plummeted, it was revealed today, following his condemning of pensioners to freezing conditions this winter.
Polling by Ipsos found that only 32 per cent of respondents view the Prime Minister favourably — dropping six percentage points since August.
Meanwhile, those who viewed Sir Keir unfavourably shot up by eight points to 46 per cent.
