Sir Keir Starmer is “underwhelming” and “sparks little enthusiasm” among voters, new polling has found.

The Labour leader is seen as “bad” or “terrible” by more than a quarter of the British public, despite his party enjoying a commanding lead over the Conservatives.

The YouGov survey marking Sir Keir’s third anniversary in charge of the party also found that just one in five Britons think he is doing a “good” or “great” job.
