In His Desperate Pivot Right To Neutralize Reform UK’s Surging Momentum, Failing British PM Starmer Is Bleeding Votes Among His Own Leftwing Camp

Failing Starmer pivots right, loses the left.

After Prime Minister Keir Starmer’s Labour got trounced by Reform UK in the recent Local Elections, he has scrambled to turn sharply right in his immigration policy in order to come closer to voters on the right side of the political spectrum.

But in doing so, it appears that he is leaking voters profusely in his leftwing camp, as we can learn from the interesting article by Fonie Mitsopoulou on City AM:

“Recent polls indicate that of those that voted Labour in the 2024 election, only 46 per cent would do so again were an election to happen tomorrow. In Labour’s leftist flanks, there is a persistent feeling that Starmer has deserted his traditional base by shifting to the right by an unwelcome degree, cutting down on welfare and legal migration.”

Farage’s Reform UK is a real threat both to Tories and to Starmer’s Labour.

No less than 43 per cent of Labour voters have two eyes that see, and noticed that that their party is trying too hard to appeal to Reform UK voters.

Starmer’s speech announcing plans to curb the migrant influx came just two weeks after Labour lost 187 councilors at the Local Elections, and Reform swelled to 677 seats.

This is Huge.
Labour is losing far more voters to the Left than to the Right.

“But while the Starmer administration try to stop a bleed from the right, there is also a vacuum for disenchanted Labour voters who remain impervious to Reform’s temptations. In fact, largest portion of Labour’s supporters are now undecided voters – up for grabs.

While the government recently reversed the wildly unpopular winter fuel payment cuts, they incurred opprobrium for delaying it by ten months from when the policy change was announced. “

The incredible shrinking Premier.

Younger Labour are going to the Green Party, and older ones are heading to the Liberal Democrats.

“The Lib Dems gained 163 local councillors in the recent elections, bringing them up to 370. A Liberal Democrat source told City AM that at the 2026 local elections, ‘you will see in key areas in London that we are the real challengers to Labour’.”

The Greens so far have gotten nine per cent of Labour’s 2024 voters, and they want to gain even more.
