The full tables for the mysterious ICM poll in the Sunday Express are now up on their website. While they are of very little use in predicting the local elections, the reasons for the strange results are now pretty clear. The poll was indeed about local election voting intention, however
A bizarre ICM poll in the Sunday Express - I haven't seen a copy of the paper, but the PA reports have voting intention at CON 29%, LAB 27%, LDEM 22%, implying that the total "other" vote is up to 22% (including 6% for the Greens,
A BPIX poll in the Mail on Sunday has voting intention figures for the local elections. Amongst those respondents who lived in areas with local elections who said they were certain to vote in the local elections, the topline figures were CON 35%, LAB 26%, LDEM 23%, Other 16%. Amongst

YouGov have carried out an experiment for Sky News, asking two groups of people if they agreed with a list of BNP policies. The first group were not told they were the policies of the BNP, the second group were. Unsurprisingly, it found that public perceptions of the BNP drove
ICM's monthly poll for the Guardian (a week late, presumably to avoid the Easter bank holidays which make it tricky to get a decent sample) shows a sharp fall for Labour and an advance for the Liberal Democrats. The topline figures, with changes since ICM's last
A BPIX survey in the Mail on Sunday has the first signs of how Labour's "Dave the Chameleon" PPB went down with the public (for those who missed it the ad is viewable here). A straight out attack ad aimed at David Cameron, there has been
