New Opinium Poll – Tories Increase Lead to 6%

There is a new poll from Opinium published in the Daily Express tomorrow showing the Conservatives increasing their lead over the Lib Dems:

            Conservative              34% (up 2%)

            Lib Dem                      28% (down 1%)

                                                                                           Labour                       25% (down 1%) 

The Lib Dems are maintaining a strong position although they are down a couple of points from their peak after the first debate and the Conservatives are a point or two stronger.

New ComRes Poll – Tories and Lib Dems Neck and Neck

There is a new poll from Communicate Research reported tonight for tomorrow’s Independent and ITV News which shows the Lib Dems further narrowing the gap with the Conservatives and Labour unchanged in third place:

                                       Conservative             32% (down 2%)

                                       Lib Dem                    31% (up 2%) 

                                       Labour                      28% (no change)

ComRes also asked voters about the prospect of a hung parliament. 72% said they’d prefer a majority government, while 20% said they would prefer a hung parliament. When those who support a majority government were asked who they would prefer to see get a majority, 37% said Conservative, 29% Labour. Of those who said they would prefer a hung parliament, 27% opted for a Conservative government with Liberal Democrat support, while 56% opted for Labour government with support of the Lib Dems.

New ICM Poll – Race Tightens Again

There is a new ICM poll in tomorrow’s Guardian which shows the race tightening again. All three parties are within a few points of each other:

            Conservative              33% (down 2%)

                                                  Lib Dem                      30% (down 1%)           

                                                  Labour                       28% (up 2%) 

This merely reverses the changes in the weekend ICM poll and restores the exact party shares of the last Guardian ICM poll.

Britain’s Got Talent 2010

In amongst all the door-knocking and delivery of leaflets I do occasionally find time to relax. On Saturday night I watched the latest episode of Britain’s Got Talent and was amazed at two acts:

Both of these acts were amazing and caught me and the judges by surprise. It proves the point that this TV formula still has a long way to run if there is talent like this still out there!
