YouGov/Sun - CON 39%, LAB 40%, LDEM 10%

Share

Tonight's YouGov poll for the Sun has topline figures of CON 39%, LAB 40%, LDEM 10%, echoing the one point Labour lead we saw in the YouGov/Sunday Times poll at the weekend. The previous time that YouGov had shown a Labour lead as low as 1 point was back at the start of September. There is also a sharp uptick in net government approval - today's figure is minus 19, the highest (or least low!) since May. It is looking as though the veto has given the Conservatives some sort of boost in support, though of course how long it lasts is an entirely different question.

The overnight poll also had some more detailed questions on Europe - the Sun have already tweeted that 58% think Cameron was right to use the veto, 21% wrong, but I'll update more fully tomorrow when the full details are available.
