U.K. Prime Minister Keir Starmer and his center-left/left Labour Party government are under great pressure.

You’d think that Starmer’s catastrophic approval rating (17% positive to 66% negative), the state of the U.K. economy (only 1.3% growth is expected in 2025, inflation is at nearly 4%, and unemployment is rising), and the soaring popularity of Nigel Farage’s Reform Party (leading Labour 7-10 points) might have jolted Starmer into a new clarity of purpose. Instead, however, the prime minister is acting as if the coming winter of discontent is a mirage that can be ignored into evaporation.
