No, Jeremy Corbyn is not the worst performing leader. Tim Farron is

For all the scrutiny Jeremy Corbyn has faced in the media during his first weeks in office, it appears another party leader has a larger problem.

Tim Farron is doing worse in his job than Jeremy Corbyn, according to a poll of 1,601 British adults by YouGov for the Sunday Times.

A staggering 66 per cent of people do not know how to gauge Mr Farron's current job performance.

That's double the number who said the same of Corbyn.

For a touch of perspective, Farron has been in office since 16 July, Corbyn has been in office just over a week.

In addition, only 6 per cent currently say they would vote for the Liberal Democrats.

Farron's net approval ratings are by far the weakest of the leaders - whether you measure for the public in general, or for his party's supporters.
