Attitudes Towards Party Leaders

Ipsos's weekend telephone poll shows that the public are increasingly distrustful of David Cameron, Sir Menzies Campbell and Gordon Brown. While Tony Blair's trust rating is virtually unchanged from September 2006, the percent of people rating Cameron 'not trustworthy' has increased 17 points. Campbell sees a similar 'not trustworthy' increase of 11 points, and Brown of 10 points. This is the lowest rating yet for Gordon Brown, and means he will start as Prime Minister with a lower trust rating than Blair had after three years as Prime Minister.

Potential 1.8 Million Increase In Adults Going To Pubs And Wine Bars More Often After The Smoking Ban

The advent of the smoking ban on 1st July is likely to bring an unexpected increase in custom to pubs and wine bars, according to new research conducted by Ipsos. Publicans should experience a significant increase in business, with 20% of regular or occasional drinkers in pubs / wine bars saying that they would visit pubs more regularly. This view was most strongly held amongst the nearly three quarters of pub goers who are non-smokers, amongst whom 26% said they would probably go to a pub more often. Among the total population, this translates to approximately 1.8m adults in England and Wales (taking into account the difference between those who would go more often and less often).

Ipsos / DTI Animal Experimentation Study, December 2006

Ipsos has conducted a survey on the general public's views on animal experimentation, on behalf of the Department of Trade and Industry. The study is the fourth in a series examining trends in public attitudes towards the use of animals in research. The first study from which trends have been examined was carried out on behalf of the Medical Research Council (in June-September 1999), with the second and third such studies being on behalf of CMP, the Coalition for Medical Progress (in 2002 and 2005). In March 1999, MORI carried out a study examining public attitudes to animal experimentation generally, and experiments involving mice or monkeys, causing no pain, severe pain, or death [see notes].
