It shows how deeply unpopular Farage remains among the public and how the next general election is far from a foregone conclusion.
A clear majority of voters still have an unfavourable view towards Reform UK leader Nigel Farage, a poll has found.
The polling, carried out by YouGov in mid August, found that Farage’s net rating has consistently been between -27 and -31 since the local elections in May.
The latest figures show a third of Britons (32%) have a favourable opinion of the Reform UK leader, while six in ten (61%) see him unfavourably, giving a net rating in August of -29.

Progressives should continue to expose Farage for what he really stands for, from favouring tax cuts for the rich to wanting to privatise the NHS, to voting against workers’ rights.
