YouGov/Sun - 39/43/7

Tonight's YouGov/Sun voting intention figures are CON 39%, LAB 43%, LDEM 7%. It's the highest Labour lead YouGov have shown since November, and the lowest Liberal Democrat score they've ever shown (the last time the Lib Dems scored lower than 7% was back in 1990). The government's net approval figure is down to minus 20 (33% approve, 53% disapprove), which is also the lowest it's been since the election.

I'll add my normal caveat about changes in polls. This could be a reaction to the fuss over VAT in recent days - we know from previous polling that it is one of the coalition's least popular policies - but equally it could be perfectly normal variation within the margin of error. Yesterday YouGov showed the Liberal Democrats at 10%, today they are at 7%. Both are entirely consistent with the underlying Lib Dem position in YouGov's polls over the last month of 8%-9%.
