Record number of Brits have unfavorable view of Nigel Farage

LONDON — A record proportion of British voters now have an unfavorable view of Reform UK Leader Nigel Farage, according to polling firm YouGov. The proportion of Brits with an unfavorable opinion of the right-wing populist leader stands at 69% — the highest level recorded by YouGov’s political favorability tracker in the decade it has run. It’s a rise of two percentage points since last month. Just 24% of voters recorded a favorable view of the Reform UK chief, the same poll found. The proportion who view Farage “very unfavorably” (57%) is not matched by any of the other four major party leaders.
