Miliband 49% and Cameron 34% in first full poll on Paxman 'debate'
http://news.sky.com/story/1454690/labour-ahead-in-first-poll-since-tv-battle
Poll is from tomorrow's Sunday Times and their editor also said YouGov asked who in Battle For Number 10 was most honest and clear in their answers. Ed got 49% while Cameron got 28%
These are the results of their overall opinion poll which closed Saturday evening like the TV debate one:
LAB 36%
CON 32%
UKIP 13%
LDEM 8%
GRNS 6%
Snap polls after the programme, in which the leaders also took questions from a studio audience, gave victory to Mr Cameron but the full poll conducted over the past two days found that, by a margin of 49% to 34%, those who watched it thought Mr Miliband came across best.

Interesting. Shows why Cameron wasn't keen to do them.
I'm really not sure about that 36% for Labour though; that would give them a majority, but I just don't get the feeling that they're at that level.
I wonder if that result will scare some Tories away from voting UKIP?
Would that be the same meeting the Labour party had last week?
Latest Opinium poll (18 - 19 Mar):
CON - 36% (+3)
LAB - 33% (-2)
UKIP - 14% (-)
LDEM - 7% (-)
GRN - 6% (-1)
Or does a 3 point lead for the Conservatives not count?
We do, but you know how people love to post poll figures when "their side" does well in them.
What has he done?
Oh Sky loved sticking that as a headline.
Did you say well done David when he was three points in the lead last week?
Oh look, somebody is intentionally missing the point, fancy that.
That was before the debate.
You are missing the point that both parties are continously 3-4 points in the lead each week this poll is no different.
oomth, poleaxed.:D
You've done it again, you're really very good at intentionally missing the point.
Goodnight.
Cameron has been hugely more popular than Miliband for a long while, and that popularity is factored in to polls.
I'd say a Miliband 49% to Cameron 34% results quite an achievment.
That would be nasty Tories who are so nasty that Labour was 3 points behind last week and are only 4 points ahead in this poll, if everyone hate the Tories so much why are Labour not double digits in the lead?
You can't see reality only what you want to.
Enjoy your sweet dreams over this poll.
Labour have been in power for 3 terms, it's hard of anyone just to keep geting reelected, they're also battling against most the media in this country who push out little bar pro Tory bilge.
The Tories were in for three terms and still won in 1992.
Do you think Cameron is doing well or badly as Prime Minister:
Well 46%
Badly 48%
Do you think Ed Miliband is doing well or badly as Labour leader
Well 30%
Badly 59%
Which of these would make the best Prime Minister
David Cameron 34%
Ed Miliband 19%
Nigel Farage 9%
Nick Clegg 5%
Don't Know 33%
Ian.
I'm not talking about the general polls though, I'm talking about the debate poll.
It was clear to anyone that Miliband was the victor there.
