True. Though if the poll is accurate it also indicates that people do not want a Brexit that leaves them worse off financially, moreso those in Leave areas. But they will want out.

May is not going to have an easy time squaring this.

Some interesting results in there. Only 5% think they will be better off but only 10% would be prepared to be £100 a month poorer

I guess everything has its price. I do wonder if those they refer to in the the article thought they would win from Brexit, or maybe others would be the losers? If food inflation for example kicks in before Brexit happens then how keen will they be to leave the EU?
Though regardless of what happens, the EU and Remain boogeymen will get the blame.

Soon to be millions?

SNP built up its support in ex. Tory areas when their vote collapsed. SNP became the anti Labour vote! Referendum brought in a swathe of Labour voters to nationalism. SNP had now positioned itself very left and destroyed Labour. Is it any surprise that by doing this they've lost some unionist ex. Tories now they've got a decent leader in Scotland.

Ho ho ho! Lovely!

ICM 9-11 December

CON: 41% (-3)
LAB: 27% (-1)
UKIP: 14% (+2)
LDEM: 9% (+2)
GRN: 3% (-1)

Many thanks.

UKIP and LD going up.

& Labour still going down - any loss from the Conservatives is either going to UKIP or the Lib Dems

Tory's to UKIP, Labour to LD?

This sort of movement is just noise - need to look at trends over a month or so from different pollsters. Still looks bad for Labour, no matter how you look at it (and a lot worse in Scotland).

I do look at trends and for months the trend has been for the Conservatives leading Labour by a margin of 14 to 17 points with Labour last week at its lowest point since 1983

Looking at any polls Labour are going in the right direction. Labour are like limbo dancers on speed -- how low can they go, lower and lower they go, they bend over backwards to please

As long as Corbyn keeps Abbot, Shakrabati and Thornberry close by his fate is sealed.

Even without them, I do not give much for his chances, who has he got from the remaining rabble in his party. All he has that believe in him are the remnants from a bygone age of unionised one-track mind, flag waving, drum banging, chanting, marching has-beens.

Mainly ex- miners and shipbuilders with a huge chip on their shoulder and a grudge against anything that is not Labour through and through,or tainted with the red flag, and as years go by these followers are all dying off, hence the lack of support for Labour They are just a dinosaur party living in the past.

Many ex-miners and steel and ship workers are turning to UKIP.

Do you have evidence of that?

Yes they live in the constituencies where Labour voters are turning to UKIP

Therefore no evidence, only guess work. You really need to do better.

Not guess work.

UKIP are snapping at Labour's heels in Wales for example.

Unless you've seen reports or polls where ex miners, steelworkers or ship builders are identified as moving to UKIP in significant numbers, it is total guesswork.

Brilliant, somebody still believes polls!!!

Do you have a pet Dodo?

Yes, I call it Hoppy Uppy

And that whilst Jerry has been enjoying his "new leader" honeymoon, and the PLP have been playing nice. Signs from the weekly PLP meet seem to be the honeymoon is over

Abbott said on Sunday that in a year's time Labour's poll figures would be up and that they were a real challenge to the Conservatives.
