More people think Labour should dump Jeremy Corbyn as leader than think they should keep him, an exclusive poll revealed yesterday.
Some 42% told Ipsos MORI that the party should change leader before the 2020 general election — including 30% who “strongly” felt Corbyn should be tossed overboard.
Only 31% felt he should stay to fight the 2020 election, including 19% who felt it strongly.
When the same question was asked a year ago, 49% said Labour should replace Ed Miliband, then the leader of four years’ standing, and 30% said he should stay. Miliband went on to lead the party to its worst defeat for a generation.
Yesterday’s survey found the big parties had similar levels of support as at the general election in May.
The Conservatives are on 36%, four points ahead of Labour’s 32. Ukip are third on 12 with the Liberal Democrats at 10 and the Greens on three. Ukip leader Nigel Farage is the only major party leader to have a positive net rating for his performance at present.  Some 45% are satisfied with him, and 37% dissatisfied.
Some 37% said the Labour leader was doing a good job, while 42% said the same for Cameron. But Corbyn appears to arouse less hostility than his Conservative rival. Some 51% said they were dissatisfied with Cameron while only 39% said the same of his rival.
Older voters are particularly dissatisfied with Corbyn. While 57% of 18-34s think he is doing well, only 22% of over-55s say the same.
Gideon Skinner, head of political research at Ipsos MORI, said: “Jeremy Corbyn continues to divide opinion, with relatively high levels of both supporters and critics early in his reign.”
