I'm assuming that you're using a Plusnet Hub-2.
Have you checked whether anything on your home network is doing a large upload, and using all of your Hub-2's upload bandwidth (and therefore killing your broadband connection latency).
Possible culprits -
- Mobile phone doing cloud backups ?
- Other users uploading or using video calling ?
- A BitTorrent running ?
- Someone remote viewing your security cameras, etc ?
- Streaming content to a gaming platform such as Twitch or YouTube ?
Does running a speed test give the results that you would normally expect ?

That does look like a local issue with your broadband connection, your router being overloaded with excessive traffic, although there could be some issue with your first hop to Plusnet gateway 172.16.32.122 however if there was a gateway problem then others would be similarly complaining.
