Irrespective of political leanings, a lot of British people are saying this. They stand for it because they have to. It's a government that was voted in by a large margin only six months ago. Disquiet, if that's the word, is pretty much universal and I am not sure we've been quite in this position before. Keir Starmer's decline in approval ratings 'marks the most substantial post-election fall for any British prime minister in recent history'.

This is a law enacted by the previous government.

Did Starmer run on this big brother type platform?

By a large margin with their seat count doubling off a 1.6% swing in their favour. The decline in approval ratings should have been entirely predictable to them.
