The political scientist announced an increase in the rating of the Reform UK party
In the UK, amid reports of the impending resignation of Prime Minister Keir Starmer, the rating of the Reform UK party led by Nigel Farage is growing. This was announced by political scientist Pavel Danilin on Thursday, November 13.
According to the expert, Starmer's rating began to fall sharply due to unfulfilled election promises, scandals and friendship with Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky.
"Starmer turned out to be a bad politician, he continued the same policies as the Conservatives. In addition, there were a lot of scandals, as well as discontent among the population caused by his special friendship with Zelensky. The Reform UK party is currently growing. She just takes off. Farage has every prospect of becoming the leader of the main party of Great Britain," he said in an interview with aif.ru .
Earlier, on November 12, The Guardian newspaper wrote that pressure on Starmer was increasing in the UK government — ministers and MPs were demanding that he dismiss his chief of staff, Morgan McSweeney. The reason was the scandal surrounding allegations that the Prime Minister's office had conducted a "preventive operation" against Health Minister Wes Streeting.
On the same day, Elena Ananyeva, head of the Center for British Studies at the Institute of Europe of the Russian Academy of Sciences, told NSN that Starmer's removal from office was quite possible, since the Labor Party would try to stay in power by changing its leader, as the Conservatives did.
Earlier, on November 9, The Sunday Times reported that British Deputy Prime Minister David Lammy warned Starmer about excessively frequent trips abroad, RT reports. According to the newspaper, the politician called on the head of government to focus on the internal problems of the country. 360.ru .
