Ipsos's poll carried out exclusively for The Mirror (conducted by telephone between 10-11 December 2008 among 1,007 British adults age 18+) shows that among those absolutely certain to vote, the Labour party's share has risen by four points to 36% since our previous voting intention poll carried out Nov 27-28. The Conservative vote share has dropped two points to 41%, and the Liberal Democrat share is on 11%.
Ipsos's monthly Issues Index (conducted face-to-face monthly of c. 1,000 British adults age 18+) shows that the economy remains at the top of the list of public concerns. In fact, for the second month in a row, Ipsos has recorded our highest-ever rating for the economy, with more than three in five (62%) of the public rating it as one of the most important issues facing Britain, and increase of four points from last month.
Ipsos's November Political Monitor (carried out by telephone between 14-16 November 2008 among 1,002 adults age 18 and over) shows that among those absolutely certain to vote, the Conservative Party share has dropped five points to 40% and the Labour Party share has increased seven points to 37%.
The economy again tops Ipsos's monthly Issues Index, with just under three fifths of British adults (58%) saying it is one of the most important issues facing Britain, an increase of 3 points from last month.
Ipsos's October Political Monitor shows that despite media speculation about a "bailout bounce", the Conservatives remain firmly in the lead with more than four in ten voters choosing them (45%), while Labour trails on 30%.
