Ed Miliband has overturned a narrow Tory advantage to take a commanding seven point lead after a bruising week for
David Cameronin the wake of the resignation of Baroness Warsi over the Gaza crisis, according to a new Guardian / ICM poll.
In a boost for
Labour, which is embarking on a pre-election summer campaign called The Choice, the party has seen its support increase by five points
over the last month to 38%, a share it last recorded in March. The Tories see their support fall by three points to 31% – last recorded in June – giving Labour a seven-point lead. In last month's Guardian / ICM poll the Tories had a one-point lead over Labour – 34% to 33%.
The Liberal Democrats are unchanged on 12%, while Ukip sees a one-point increase in its support to 10%.
