Jeremy Corbyn is almost as unpopular as Donald Trump among the British public, according to pollsters GfK.
The majority of Britons think both men are doing a bad job, with 58% disapproving of the performance of Mr Corbyn as leader of the opposition and 60% disapproving of Mr Trump as US President.
Just 17% approve of Mr Corbyn's performance, while 18% approve of Mr Trump, the poll found.
By contrast, the public think Theresa May is doing a good job as Prime Minister - with 46% saying they approve compared to 33% who don't.
However, people are evenly split on the performance of the Government - 40% approve and 40% disapprove.
GfK research director Keiran Pedley said: "Whilst Donald Trump's approval rating among British adults will be the least of the President's worries following his healthcare struggles last week, it will be of great concern to Labour supporters that Jeremy Corbyn's approval rating among Brits is no better.
"With Theresa May clearly more popular than the Government as a whole and the Conservatives significantly ahead in the polls, it looks like Labour is a long way from power."
