I never take notice of them.
Nor put any faith in any one selected poll, even one that just suits my preference.

The average lead of Con over Labour is around 8/9 percent.
That's overall less than the 2019 election position.

The ONLY nearest National poll we've had are the local and Mayoral elections this year.
Wherein the breakdown of actual votes was Con 36% and Labour 29% .
On the lower turnout there is in local elections.

However that's only 7%

There's margins of errors in all polling anyhow.
Figures of 44 to 31.
Can easily be in margins of error figures of around 41 to 34.
Oddly enough a 7% gap.
Possibly still in line with the local elections results.

Given that labour are utterly unelectable at the moment without a policy in sight, you would expect the tories to be miles ahead and they are not. That should be of greater concern

Well it doesn't help that the Tories are even worse and have lived off two good policies in 11 years of their tenure.

Honestly if it weren't for the Media being up the Tories butt we would've had PM Corbyn against Theresa May that's how bad she was as leader.

Hello Joey.

Tbf the Tories are very likely to win (the Media is on their side after all) but I definitely think it'll be by a very different margin to whatever YouGov says.

The Sun, The Times, Daily Mail, Telegraph, BBC News, Channel 5 News, and Sky News are all pro Tories.

And from what I've noticed the main voters at Elections tend to listen to BBC News more than they listen to people on YouTube.

Although you do make a fair point LT that those companies you've named are pro Labour.
