Ratings for Jeremy Corbyn's leadership have dropped to their lowest levels since last May, according to a poll.
The Labour leader fared better with voters than Theresa May on qualities such as honesty, being less out of touch and having more personality.
But the Prime Minister was viewed more positively on patriotism, being a capable leader and being good in a crisis.
The Labour leader's net satisfaction score fell to minus 27, the same level as May last year and down 6% since March.
Mrs May's rating fell by 3% over the month to minus 17, the Ipsos MORI Political Monitor found.
The leaders are battling it out to win over support ahead of Thursday's local elections but have both faced internal party crises.
Mrs May lost Amber Rudd from her Cabinet after a turbulent week over the Windrush scandal and targets on the removal of illegal immigrants.
Mr Corbyn, meanwhile, has faced intense criticism over his handling of anti-Semitism in the party.
Some 46% of voters said Mrs May was a capable leader compared to 32% for Mr Corbyn.
The Prime Minister is viewed as "out of touch with ordinary people" by 64% of adults, compared to 39% for Mr Corbyn.
Gideon Skinner, head of political research at Ipsos MORI, said: "Jeremy Corbyn's ratings have had their ups and downs since he was elected leader.
"After a decline in 2016 they rose remarkably during the election campaign, where they stayed for a while - but in recent months they have started to dip again.
"He is better viewed than Theresa May on ratings such as being honest, having a lot of personality and being less out of touch, but she leads on attributes such as patriotism, being a capable leader and good in a crisis."
- Ipsos MORI interviewed a representative sample of 1,004 adults across Great Britain by telephone between April 20-24.
