I don't really buy much of that ^^^. Even in the worst poll you can find we're still doing significantly better than we did in 2019. Starmer's approval rating at his worst is better than Corbyn's at his best.
In 2019, Corbyn had a very hostile press, a party that was briefing against him, a Brexit balancing act to contend with, and anti-semitism accusations.
Starmer has none of those, and has an open goal of the Tories handling of Covid-19 causing 117k deaths. So, quite frankly, I would expect Starmer to be doing a lot better than 2019. That he's not perhaps indicates this is the wrong direction for the Labour party
