Last night we posted about a Populus survey for The Times which put Labour 6% ahead. Another survey by Communicate Research – for The Independent – puts the Labour lead at a more modest 3%.
Labour is on 37% (up 5% on last month). The Conservatives are down 3% to 34%. The LibDems are on 16%.
Reacting to Communicate Research’s finding that the Labour lead is 9% amongst men but the Tories are 2% ahead amongst women, a Cabinet minister told The Independent: "Polling evidence we have had shows that women tend to be slower to switch than men. But they will come across." I think that statement could be described as condescending!
