UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak faces a potential historic defeat in the upcoming general election, with polls indicating he could become the first sitting prime minister to lose his parliamentary seat. Recent polling data shows Sunak's approval ratings have plummeted, with a net favourability rating of -56%, worse than former leaders Boris Johnson and Jeremy Corbyn. A YouGov survey revealed that 75% of UK residents have a negative view of Sunak, with only Liz Truss being more disliked at 80%. Sunak's net approval rating stands at -27%. The Conservative Party is projected to suffer a landslide defeat, with many current Conservative voters believing a wipeout would be a positive outcome. Sunak's decision to call a snap election appears to have backfired, further jeopardizing his party's prospects.
