Especially for my Labour readers

As I have said on a number of occasions, in my view opinion polls are good for identifying trends, details are not their strong point however. The polls at the moment are tending to show a trend of Labour in 3rd or 4th place. The latest one for YouGov shows:

  • Lib Dems 30%
  • Conservatives 24%
  • Brexit 19%
  • Labour 17%

For Labour, this is dire. Surely, all those local Labour members in Gateshead who dribble and drool over Corbyn and how he will "sweep to victory" in a general election must be shaken out of their mesmerised state by this dreadful rating. Yet at the moment I have heard none of them say anything about the need to dump Corbyn. For Lib Dems, that's good news.
