Over half of voters see Nigel Farage and Reform UK as sleazy

Over half of voters see Nigel Farage and Reform UK as sleazy

New polling from YouGov suggests more than 50% of people view Nigel Farage as "very sleazy", a far worse score than other party leaders. Even 40% of Reform UK voters see him as sleazy, and the party's overall "sleazy" rating has worsened. However, YouGov notes these views might reflect popularity more than actual morality, as 77% of people also see "British governments in general" as sleazy.
