The survey by More in Common found the Prime Minister's approval rating has plummeted from a high of +11 in July to -38.
It comes the day before before Chancellor Rachel Reeves is set to unveil Labour's first budget in 14 years, with a cut to the earnings threshold at which employers pay national insurance and an increase in the rate of contributions expected to be announced.
