Ipsos MORI/Standard - CON 27, LAB 40, LD 11, UKIP 13

Ipsos MORI's monthly political monitor is out, with topline figures of CON 27%(-3), LAB 40%(-2), LDEM 11%(+4), UKIP 13%(+4). It suggests a boost for the Lib Dems and UKIP in the aftermath of Eastleigh, but little difference in the Labour lead (most of MORI's polls in the last few months have shown this degree of lead).

MORI also have some economic questions in advance of the budget. George Osborne's approval rating remains strongly negative - 60% are dissatisfied with how he is doing compared to only 27% who approve. As with most recent polls, MORI show Labour and the Conservatives pretty much neck-and-neck on the economy. 26% think that Labour have the best policies, 27% the Conservatives. Asked if a Labour government under Miliband and Balls would do better or worse than the current government at running the economy 26% think they'd do a better job, 31% a worse job and 38% think they'd do much the same.
