What's surprising about it? Some Labour voters will feel a sense of ideological duty to say they support the current leader while others will be more issue based. I would only say it's surprising if the poll swung hugely towards favouring one over the other.

Surprising that Corbyn's support is still as high as it is among Labour voters as a whole, I mean.

In the aftermath of 2019 his "do you think he's doing a good job as leader" polling was in the toilet, even among Labour voters. So it's interesting that ~40% have decided that Starmer is worse even than that, or have rehabilitated Corbyn to some extent in their minds over the past year.

Bodes fairly well for the left in the event of a leadership challenge, potentially.

I feel like 'bad day' is an extremely subjective phrase where Starmer is concerned.

Two green reading lamps but different styles is deeply annoying to me. Did he abstain on choosing which sort he preferred?

Kind of missing the room size and cost of the houses in your “anti-ageist” rant there. Like my parents just sold a 4 bedroom house in the countryside and downsized to a flat, which cost 600k because it’s in a famous building where as a 3 bed in my street costs £100k.

Getting vaccinated next week, aged 31. Technically have an underlying health issue but it was signed off when I stopped being a paediatric patient so I'm impressed they still had it on record tbh. Checked the site and they wanted me to drive 25 miles, checked back half an hour later and there's a centre five minutes walk away. Pretty decent system tbh.

Yes hello. It's me who pissed off my primary school by leaving after Year 5 having won a full scholarship to a fancy secondary school, depriving them of my baller SATS results, then coasted through secondary school without ever really learning how to work at things until things eventually got difficult and I ended up with some mediocre A Levels at 16. Then slacked through uni, scraped a 2:1, job done. No First to put on the big wall at school though, what a disappointment I must have been.

I have an automatic (ostensibly to make it easier for my partner to learn but ehhh...) and I find it really frustrating because the point at which it changes up from second to third (from the four available gears) is all wrong for pootling across town slightly below 30mph. So if I don't manually switch up it revs like hell and uses an inordinate amount of fuel. It definitely makes me a lazier and less alert driver, too.

I miss gears. But it's quite possible it's just a poo poo automatic and a better one would be lovely.
