New YouGov Poll – Tories Enjoy a 2% Lead!
There is a new YouGov poll in the Sun newspaper tomorrow showing the Conservatives with a lead of 2% over Labour:
Conservative 40% (down 1%)
Labour 38% (up 2%)
Lib Dem 10% (up 1%)
This poll comes after a couple of YouGov polls showing the two major parties neck and neck with Labour enjoying a small lead.
In other findings 34% approve of the Government’s record to date with 50% disapproving, giving a net approval of -16%. This is significantly better than most of the latter part of last year.
Changes shown are compared to the last YouGov poll I covered on 22 January.
