New YouGov Poll – Tories Take 3% Lead
There is a new YouGov poll published in tomorrow’s Sun newspaper showing the Conservatives taking a 3% lead over Labour:
Conservative 41% (up 1%)
Labour 38% (no change)
Lib Dem 8% (down 2%)
For the Conservatives to be 3% behind Labour at this stage of the political cycle would be amazing, to be 3% AHEAD of Labour at this stage is almost incredible. We will have to see if this is sustained or whether it is an outlier.
Changes shown are compared to the last YouGov poll I covered on 11 January.
