Ipsos's recent survey for The Sun (conducted by telephone 20-22 September 2007) shows Labour on 42%, the Conservatives on 34% and the Liberal Democrats on 14%, giving a Labour lead of 8 points.
The first wave of a major new study, the Delivery Index, is launched by Ipsos today. It shows the scale of the challenge facing Prime Minister Gordon Brown as he tries to develop a new style of politics to define his premiership.
Ipsos's August Political Monitor puts Labour five points ahead of the Conservatives (41% vs 36%), with the Liberal Democrat share at 16%. Gordon Brown's personal rating shows 43% of the population satisfied with the way he is doing his job as Prime Minister.
Ipsos's latest poll for the Sun (conducted on the telephone from 8-9 August) indicates that the 'Brown bounce' continues, with Labour leading over the Conservatives on voting intention among those who say they are 'certain to vote'. Brown is seen to outstrip both Cameron and Campbell in being seen as trustworthy, as well as being perceived as 'better in a crisis' and 'better at understanding the problems facing Britain'.
Ipsos's July Political Monitor puts Labour's share of the vote six points higher than the Conservatives' (41% vs. 35%). Gordon Brown's first satisfaction rating score as prime minister is 35% satisfied and 20% dissatisfied.
Ipsos's June Political Monitor shows Labour leading the Conservatives for the first time in seven months (39% vs. 36%). The Liberal Democrats' share of the vote is down to 15%, their lowest share recorded by Ipsos since November 2001.
