UK Poll: Favourable view of Trump 17%, unfavourable 77%. "Honest": 16%

https://d25d2506sfb94s.cloudfront.net/cumulus_uploads/document/n7o9ucu4o2/TonightResults_180710_Trump_w.pdf

Very favourable: 4%; somewhat favourable: 13%
Somewhat unfavourable: 16%; very unfavourable: 61%

Putin's figures are slightly worse. So Trump isn't seen quite as bad as his poisoner boss.

Merkel net (-ve=unfavourable): +2%; Macron -2, Trudeau +20, Obama +59, GW Bush -47.

Trump is:
Sexist 74%
Racist 63%
Honest 16%
Strong leader: 38%
Charismatic 25%

So, of course Trump says "they like me a lot in the UK".

That's at the top end of what they've been recently (they didn't, however, drop to 0% in one recent poll, as the side bar seems to show - that poll just didn't bother giving UKIP as an explicit option). 3-4% is more typical.
