Half of Britons think Boris Johnson has not been up to scratch as British Prime Minister – a jump of 13 points from last year, a poll has found.

An Ipsos UK survey carried out last week suggests that 54% of Britons think the British Prime Minister has done a bad job to date, with almost the same proportion supporting a vote of no confidence in his leadership.
