The most accurate poll from 2017 was the one on 8 June which had Corbyn on 40%.
I'm not using this to suggest he is a better leader than Starmer - he patently was not very good at all.
But the best Starmer is faring in any poll at the moment is 38%, and that is a real indictment.
Playing it safe hasn't worked, poor performance in the Scottish and local elections will compound it, and if we'd rather have a Labour than Conservative government it's a problem.
