Political polling

[two sheds]

They've got to defend the NHS and nurses and protest lack of PPE if nothing else Fucking insane.

More evidence of the Starmer 'bounce'/centrist 'honeymoon':

Not sure polling is relevant atm. The question "how would you vote in a general election held tomorrow?" is currently absurd.

 

[Proper Tidy]

Yeah true, would like to see Labour come out and challenge the government more on their handling of the coronavirus.

Its nice to have hopes and dreams I suppose

LDs below 10% again - excellent.

And yet the parties will be commissioning plenty.

Here's the 'leadership' findings from that poll; looks like Starmer has made little impact on a fair chunk of the electorate:

I'd still expect Johnson to be doing better now, just due to the circumstances and the fact that its almost impossible for anyone else to get on telly, but that still shows an almost 10% drop in those thinking he is doing well!

As platinumsage said above, these are obviously strange times in which to be analysing polling...so I'm not sure I'd be expecting any particular response atm.
That said, a shrug of the shoulders from a full 43% of those responding does not suggest that Starmer has yet made much impact.

Majority of people will either have never heard of him, or at least not heard him say anything. I wouldnt have were it not for the Starmer thread tbh

I mean, I'm sure this is true for a large number who would struggle to name anybody beyond johnson and corbyn, maybe sturgeon. But he's been on frontbench of opposition for a few years, labour's lead on brexit.

More likely, if they recognised him at all, that they'd see that nice man on the telly who keeps on saying don't be too hard on the government...after all, at this time, we all have to.....

His polling above isn't bad, lots of neutral, lots of people who basically don't know who he is or at least not what he's about. Neutral is basically an extension of Don't Know I reckon. I know there is a Don't Know option but still.



I feel dirty for even talking about this subject .

New Scottish voting intention YouGov out yesterday

Three quarters approve of the Scottish Government’s handling of COVID 19 | YouGov

First Minister also seen positively with 7 in 10 Scots confident in her decisions surrounding the crisis

. With elections scheduled for next year, current vote shares for next year’s Scottish Parliament election are perhaps more interesting. In the constituency vote, the SNP are on 54%, almost double the Conservatives on 23%, and way above Labour with just 12% of the vote share. For the regional vote the SNP are again well above their main competition with Conservatives on 23%, and Labour 12%. If such a result were to happen next May this would likely return a majority to the Scottish National Party in Holyrood.

It's not hard to look good when you're being constantly compared to the muppets at Westminster. Has been impressive enough for me to start another round of 'let's move to Scotland' on mrs maomao anyway.

Yeah it's not hard when you attend the same COBRA meetings as Westminster but make sure you are the first to announce things. Oooh aren't we on the ball. Perhaps survey respondents should check how well the situation in Scottish care homes is being handled, or perhaps they don't care about that.

What do you think is wrong with how the Scottish Government is handling the situation in Scottish care homes?

I saw this tweet from Owen Jones last week and meant to bring it up here



Brexit and Lib Dems aside, an interesting question is, what is the rump Tory vote as a percentage? As with Trump its hard to imagine what Johnson would have to do to start decreasing his rump vote. Is it 40%?
