EMU Entry And EU Constitution

BBC Coverage Of The EU
MORI's work for the BBC shows that - in a majority of cases - knowledge and understanding of the EU is very low. This severely limits people's ability to make a judgement on the impartiality of the BBC's coverage. Lack of understanding tends to translate into low interest and limited consumption. This in turn severely limits the majority's ability to compare the relative qualities of the BBC's EU coverage across its three platforms (television, radio and online), or to judge the BBC's coverage against that of other broadcasters.

MORI Political Monitor December
MORI's December Political Monitor gives the Liberal Democrats their highest share of the vote all year among those who say they are absolutely certain to vote in an immediate General Election, as measured by MORI's monthly survey. Their vote share, on 26%, is up by 3 points from November, and up eight points from the year's low back in May. Labour remain unchanged, on 35%, and the Conservatives are down 1 point, on 30%, since our November survey. If these figures were replicated at a General Election, and assuming a national uniform swing, we would expect a Labour majority of over 100 seats, with the Liberal Democrats still in third place but with as many as 75 MPs in total.
