Back ahead?

I am not sure whether this is a “have a quick gloat, Yougov will wipe the smile off your face tomorrow” story or an indication that Labour has turned a corner but according to today’s Independent Labour opened up a two-point opinion poll lead over the Tories.

A Communicate Research poll puts Labour on 36 per cent, the Tories on 34 per cent, the Liberal Democrats on 17 per cent and other parties on 13 per cent. There has been a striking change since last month, when the Tories enjoyed a six-point lead over Labour.

Plug these figures into Electoral Calculus and you get a healthy majority for a fourth term and the Lib Dems taking a right pasting!

I daresay the next poll will show the Tories with a substantial lead… hiho
