YouGov gives reason to smile (if you’re a Tory)

I go out to work for one evening and YouGov publish the results of their latest poll. It is as you will have already heard, 26%. I don’t think digits really do the number justice so, TWENTY-SIX PERCENT! Wow!

Wow, wow and wow again.

There will be certain people who sneer at this poll, certain people mainly from the left. But bear this in mind, it was YouGov who got the Mayoral polls spot on, not Mori, not Populas and not ComRes, YouGov.

The poll has the parties standing at:
Conservative - 49%
Labour - 23%
LibDems - 17%

How the British people have fallen out with NuLabour. How I love it.

I am going to go down to Crewe for to work on the by-election in the final week so we shall see if this converts into the first win for over 20 years for the Conservatives attacking a by-election, here’s hoping!

Update - The Beeb have decided not to report (at least on their Website) that their Government paymasters are getting walloped 26%. Both ITV and Sky are doing so. What does this say about “public service” broadcasting? (I would put the links in but I’m staying a friends house tonight and using his laptop which doesn’t appear to allow me to do anything much but upload an article)

Update #2 - having just got back home I have realised I didn’t state anywhere in the front of the article that the 26% is the Conservative lead over the Labour government, well done Gordon, keep on going and we’ll be into the 30’s soon!
