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.
