New YouGov Poll – Tories and Labour Neck and Neck
There is a new YouGov poll in the Sun newspaper today showing the Conservatives and Labour neck and neck on 39% each:
Conservative 39% (down 1%)
Labour 39% (up 1%)
Lib Dem 9% (down 1%)
In other findings 30% approve of the Government’s record to date with 55% disapproving, giving a net approval of -25%.
Changes shown are compared to the last YouGov poll I covered on 8 February.
