"An analysis of the results of population surveys conducted by the public opinion and market research company "Baltijos tyrimai" over the past 20 years showed that the most favorably rated prime ministers were Saulius Skvernelis, Algirdas Butkevičius and Gediminas Kirkilas.

 

Since July 2006, seven governments have been in power, led by G. Kirkilas, Andrius Kubilius, A. Butkevičius, S. Skvernelis, Ingrida Šimonytė, Gintautas Paluckas and Inga Ruginienė.

 

An analysis of the results of "Baltijos tyrimai" population surveys since 2006 showed that the best rated head of government was S. Skvernelis.

According to the data of "Baltijos tyrimys", in fourth place according to the ratio of the highest favorable to unfavorable assessments is G.

The highest rate of favorable evaluations during her leadership was 49 percent, and the highest rate of unfavorable evaluations was 54 percent.

The highest rate of favorable evaluations of the politician was 48 percent, and unfavorable – 75 percent.

 

An analysis of population surveys conducted by “Baltijos tyrimas” showed that over the past 20 years, A. Kubilius, who served as Prime Minister in 2008–2012, was the worst evaluated by the population – he was best evaluated at the beginning of his leadership (in December 2008), when 39 percent of those surveyed evaluated him favorably and 50 percent. unfavorably. At that time, the worst evaluation was in April 2010. During that period, A. Kubilius was favorably evaluated by only 7 percent of the country's adult population, and as many as 88 percent. respondents indicated that they assessed him unfavorably.

 

Residents trusted S. Skvernelis' Government the most

 

Assessing the residents' trust in the cabinets of ministers, the Government led by S. Skvernelis was the best evaluated over the past 20 years (on average, 44 percent trusted and 52 percent distrusted). In second place was the Government led by A. Butkevičius (on average, 42 percent trusted and 55 percent distrusted). The top three in terms of positive assessments also includes the Government of G.

Ruginienė is evaluated very similarly (on average, 33 percent trusted and 62 percent distrusted).

 

At that time, the government led by I. Šimonytė remained in the penultimate place (on average, 32 percent trusted and 64 percent distrusted).

 

In the last place according to the average trust of the surveyed population is the cabinet of ministers led by A. Kubilius, which was trusted by an average of 19 percent of the country's adult population, and 77 percent did not trust.”

 

We conclude that the Conservative Party is a walking corpse. In times of crisis-induced populism, the Conservative Party, never able to become popular, is doomed to die.
