YouGov have conducted a poll of Labour party members that shows half of Labour's own members want Gordon Brown to go, and Alan Johnson is the leading candidate to succeed him. It was conducted on Friday and Saturday, so after James Purnell's resignation and the extent
People I see keep asking me about exit polls, so just so you know there probably aren't any - or at least, none giving an early heads up of the result; the BBC or Sky may well have done some normal polling just to add colour to their
I suppose writing a final round-up was tempting fate somewhat! YouGov have conducted a final poll for the European elections, to be published in tomorrow's Telegraph and just released on Sky. Topline figures, with changes from the their last poll, are CON 26%(-1), LAB 16%(-1), LDEM

The record for Labour's lowest ever score in the polls seems to be getting broken anew every time a new poll comes out. Ipsos MORI's monthly political monitor has been released as has topline figures, with changes from their last poll, of CON 40%(-1), LAB
The YouGov/Telegraph poll I expected last week is in Monday's Telegraph. The topline voting intention figures, with changes from YouGov's last poll, are CON 39%(nc), LAB 22%(-1), LDEM 18%(-1). Evidently there is no major change here from YouGov's last poll
The Sunday Times today carries the first poll for the forthcoming Glasgow North East by-election. It is carried out by Scottish Opinion and shows vote shares of CON 6%, LAB 51%, LDEM 3%, SNP 33%. The Sunday Times report concludes from this that "The SNP would struggle to win
I've been speculating about it for a couple of months, but in the Sunday Telegraph tomorrow we finally see a poll (as suspected from ICM, who tend to give the Liberal Democrats their highest levels of support) putting Labout in third place. The topline figures, with changes from
No proper figures yet, but Matthew D'Ancona's column in tomorrow's Sunday Telegraph is already up and reveals ICM have a new poll including European election voting intentions, and that it shows Labour in third place with less than 20%. I'll do a
As well as the voting intention Populus also asked about various Parliamentary reforms. 74% said they supported fixed-term Parliaments, 73% more free votes, 66% that the number of MPs should be reduced, 56% that MPs should not have second jobs and 51% supported a fully elected House of Lords. 56%
