ComRes's monthly online poll for the Independent on Sunday is out today and has topline figures of CON 42%(nc), LAB 29%(-1), LDEM 7%(nc), UKIP 13%(nc), GRN 3%(nc). There is no significant change in support since last month. For those intrigued by the big
The biggest political news story today is the government's decision to allow the opening of a de facto new grammar school in Kent (it's illegal to actually open a new grammar school, so technically it's a second site for an existing grammar school in
There is a new YouGov Scottish poll in this morning's Times. Topline Holyrood voting intentions are pretty much unchanged from YouGov's last Scottish poll a month ago, just before Jeremy Corbyn became Labour leader. Constituency vote stands are CON 19%(+1), LAB 21%(-1), LDEM 5%
