I admire your optimism, but given that people said the same about trump in the US, and given Starmer's inability or unwillingness to actually address people's problems, I'm not holding my breath.
I'm not suggesting Reform won't do well or badly next General Election. I agree that as things are going right now Starmer and probably Labour will get just the one term. I certainly don't want more of where they're going.
Mainly commenting that poll results now don't give much clue about next General Election.
Whatever Labour do or don't do a degree of outcome for UK will be determined by international events.
That said, people are slow to change opinions and slow to change back so both Starmer snd Badenoch seem busy digging their ever deeper holes in the hope a ladder will magically arrive.
But people will find it easier to say "Farage" now because that decision wont put him in charge ie no consequences. When their decision might result in him getting to be PM they may easily reconsider ie big consequences.
Add that Farage is closely aligning himself with Trump. As Trump causes more issues and impacts and damage people in the IK will ask themselves "do we really want that here?".
