Jeremy Vine callers share their distrust of Labour government
A guest on The Jeremy Vine Show today (October 11) ripped into Labour with a scathing rant, saying that "a lot of people are frightened and don't trust the government."
Jeremy Vine allowed members of the public to phone into the show and have their opinion on Labour's popularity, which has hit a 'record low' after nearly 100 days since Keir Starmer became Prime Minister.
According to a number of publications, a majority of voters are disappointed by the Labour government’s actions so far. It comes amid the government’s decision to scrap winter fuel payments for millions of pensioners.
On the Channel 5 show, one caller named Angie from Essex shared their displeasure with life under Labour and said that stopping the winter fuel payments was "the key thing" why she rated the government so lowly.
However, another caller called Denise told Jeremy that "a lot of people are so frightened now" and that it was "ridiculous" that Labour accepted gifts including free clothes from party donor Lord Waheed Alli.

What's more, a YouGov poll found that four in 10 voters believe the UK is in a worse state since the general election. Half of Labour voters also voiced that they feel 'let down' by the government.
Also during Labour's first 100 days include Sue Gray resigning from her position as Downing Street chief of staff.
Keir Starmer has additionally attempted to reset the agenda three times with announcements about restricting gifts in the future.
