Labour's catastrophic losses in last week's local and devolved elections, where Reform UK and Greens made major gains, drove UK government approval to record lows in YouGov's 9-11 May poll—14% approve versus 70% disapprove, net -56%, down eight points from early May. Keir Starmer's net favourability held steady at -46, per recent YouGov data, amid ongoing party tensions including Andy Burnham's announcement to contest the Makerfield by-election. With no fresh scandals or policy setbacks this week and historical patterns of post-election stabilization, traders reflect 66% implied probability for an approval uptick in the next weekly YouGov tracker, betting on a modest rebound before potential leadership speculation intensifies.
