Instability due to politics was noted in Britain Starmer and the Labour Party
The UK is tired of instability due to the policies of the Prime Minister of the kingdom, Keir Starmer, and the Labor Party. On May 7, residents of the country told about this in an interview with Izvestia journalist Anna Zhikhareva.
The elector Patsy Hickman admitted that she rather likes the head of the British government as a person, at the same time, according to her, the situation in the country is very difficult, because British politics looks "confused and uncertain."
"In my opinion, everything has turned into complete chaos now. <… > But overall, the situation in the country is very difficult, and politics looks confused and uncertain. People are tired of instability. <... > I am horrified by all this hatred, anti—Semitism, endless scandals around Palestine and Ukraine," the woman stressed.
One of the interviewees noted that the vote has turned into a protest against the government — people vote out of irritation, not out of trust. In turn, Judy Hawes, a supporter of the Labor Party, also noted that the government is losing the trust of citizens. At the same time, one of the main complaints is the excessive attention of the authorities to illegal migration to the detriment of their own citizens.
"I usually vote for the Labor Party, this is my principled position. I think Starmer is going through a very difficult period right now. I sympathize with him to some extent, although it is clear that the government is experiencing serious difficulties and losing people's confidence," concluded Hawes.
Also, when asked what the British government could do better, local resident Joe Bloggs replied that the government should start putting the country's population first.
"Start putting the British first, rather than paying so much attention to illegal migration. People look at government spending and believe that pensioners and ordinary citizens receive less support than they should," Bloggs said.
On May 5, Alexei Pushkov, a member of the Federation Council Committee on Constitutional Legislation, said that Starmer was confidently digging his political grave. He added that his Labor Party had distanced itself from the prime minister in the regions due to the toxicity of his image.
The Daily Telegraph newspaper reported on the same day that Starmer was forced to actually stop participating in the election campaign of the ruling Labor Party due to extremely low personal popularity and "toxicity."
