Josh, if you meant to say there is no apparent bounce for Labour in the first poll since Starmer’s win, you would be right.
But in saying there is no bounce for Starmer you are wrong.

He has a 34 to 8 favourability rating overall. In those constituencies that the Conservatives gained from Labour it is 41 to 7.
Contrast this with Corbyn’s 4 or 5 to 1 negative ratings and it is hard not to conclude that the public sees Starmer as a great improvement and approves of him marginalizing the Corbynites.
The party polling is so far less favourable but it is likely distorted by the crisis effect and sympathy with Boris over his illness.
Leadership figures on the other hand are often a leading indicator of shifts in party support.
So let’s wait and see where things are in a couple months.
