YouGov/Sunday Times - CON 36%, LAB 42%, LDEM 10%

The weekly YouGov/Sunday Times poll tomorrow has topline figures of CON 36%, LAB 42%, LDEM 10%. The six point Labour lead YouGov was showing before the conference season remains unchanged - neither the Liberal Democrats not Labour have any obvious conference bounce.

This is the third conference season where YouGov have conducted daily polling. On the first two occasions there was an obvious pattern of each party in turn seeing a small (albeit temporary) boost in their support from the conference publicity and I did rather expect that to be the norm. However, so far neither the Lib Dems nor Labour have seen any sort of significant conference boost this year. Perhaps it's just because there's not much public interest - in 2009 it was the last conference before an election, Gordon Brown was on the ropes and David Cameron was the man who was likely to be Prime Minister in 7 months time. In 2010 Labour were unveiling a new leader and it was the first conference in coalition government for the other two parties. Perhaps there's just no reason for the public to care much this time.

Still, one more conference to go. Full update on the Sunday Times questions to come tomorrow.
