Daily Mail  

Fewer than half of Labour voters are optimistic about the year ahead despite the Prime Minister's vow to 'fight for change' in 2025, a new poll has revealed. Sir Keir Starmer hailed the past 12 months as a 'year of change' and insisted Britain was already starting to see the fruits of a Labour government. The Prime Minister's own personal ratings show the problem appears to be with both party and leader, with 42 per cent of Labour voters saying they were disappointed. Sir Keir Starmer hailed the past 12 months as a 'year of change' and insisted Britain was already starting to see the fruits of a Labour government Pictured: Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer shakes hands with supporters after winning the General Election The wider electorate see the party as 'incompetent', 'dishonest' and 'unsuccessful', according to the survey, with many feeling Sir Keir will fail to achieve the six 'milestones' he set out on housing, the NHS, education, policing, clean energy and economic growth.
