LAB extend lead to 4pc with ComRes online

November 19th, 2011

This month’s ComRes online poll for the Indy on Sunday and Sunday Mirror is just out and shows very little change on a month ago. The Tories are down two, the LDs and others are up 1 with Labour no change on 39%.

Like all current polling the voting intention question was based on what respondents would do in a hypothetical general election tomorrow.

I’d like pollsters to start putting the May 7 2015 date to see what happens. It would certainly focus respondents and maybe produce a much higher proportion.

Amongst the other questions:-

A Labour government under Ed Miliband would be better at protecting people’s jobs

Agree: 27% (32% April 11) (30% Jan11)

Disagree: 43% (40% April 11) (38% Jan11)

Don’t know: 30% (28% April 11) (32% (Jan11)

It is better to let Government borrowing go on rising than to allow more youth unemployment

Agree: 22%

Disagree: 48%

Don’t know: 29%

The loss of hundreds of thousands of public sector jobs is a price worth paying to reduce the deficit

Agree: 29% (30% Oct10)

Disagree: 51% (47% Oct10)

Don’t know: 20% (23% Oct10)

In most cases I have sympathy for people going on strike against public spending cuts

Agree: 48% (51% July11) (48% May11)

Disagree: 38% (38% July11) (37% May11)

Don’t know: 14% (11% July11) (15% May11)

I trust David Cameron and George Osborne to make the right decisions about the economy

Agree: 30% (31% Aug11)

Disagree: 45% (48% Aug11)

Don’t know: 25% (21% Aug11)

I trust Ed Miliband and Ed Balls to make the right decisions about the economy

Agree: 21% (18% Aug 11)

Disagree: 50% (54% Aug 11)

Don’t know: 28% (28% (Aug 11)

David Cameron is defending Britain’s interests well in the crisis over the euro

Agree: 35%

Disagree: 34%

Don’t know: 30%

The planned high-speed rail link from London to Birmingham and the north would be expensive but worth it

Agree: 32%

Disagree: 40%

Don’t know: 28%

    I do wish politicans would actually work out what ‘green taxes’ are supposed to do.

    On one ascept, Air Duty and fuel duty are doing exactly what they’re supposed to be doing, in making it so exepensive to travel that less people are doing it. The same with energy prices and duties

    Funnily enough it’s proving hugely unpopular. Who could have seen that coming. So either green taxes are working and people should stop moaning about it, or they never worked in the first place, are unpopular, and the entire notion of them should be disposed of.

    In my idiotic neocon world as you put it, I would spend more time and effort in getting a million homegrown kids into work than having debates as to how many millions more immigrants we can attract into Britain to fill the place up.

    Seriousy, many of you lot on here don’t give a crap about the appalling rate of youth unemployment do you? Who gives a shit right? They are just thickos and trouble makers who’s parents have struggled to give them everything they could possibly want. And the kids have just blown all those wonderful chances they’ve had.

    Or alternatively, parents of said generation are (over generalising here), a greedy bunch of want everything for nothings who have spent, nay pissed up a wall, untold billions of future income so they could live it up. And those wonderfully uneducated kids (obviously their own fault for deciding on a crap education system), are now going to be expected to pay unsustainable pensions to the older generations for the 35 or so years until they do the honorable thing and die.

    One f**ked up society if you ask me. Oh, and did I mention the unskilled immigrants coming over and taking the jobs?

    Another point about a New London Airport is that I reckon it could get all-party backing.

    Labour favour Keynesian pump-priming, the Tories believe in encouraging business and helping investment, and the Lib Dems have a couple of seats in SW London which would welcome the noise reduction if all the planes went to Sheppey.

    Given that our economic situation is now so dire we may need to forget party differences soon and settle on A Real Plan, a point of initial consensus is to be welcomed.

    Build The Airport.

  • Max

    No, I think you will find that people hate Heathrow. They really, really hate it and if the government said, we’ll build a brand spanking new airport with more capacity than it will ever need so you never have to wait on the tarmac, or fly around for 40 minutes waiting for a landing slot, or wait in traffic on the M4/M25 again, people will be raring to see it happen. I kind of like Heathrow, but I live in London and it’s relatively easy to get to, but for non-Londoners it is pig of airport and the number of domestic flights it can take is absolutely limited so many have to fly from the North or West to Stansted or Luton then make their way to Heathrow by public transportation or taxi, if you could promise them that they could get from Leeds local airport to London International (a hypothetical 6 runway airport) directly, then have your bags transferred automatically to your connecting intercontinental flight while you wait in a nice departure lounge Starbucks they will lap it up.

    Air travel in the UK is a nightmare and positioned properly the government can get the votes in Parliament (for example the whole Tory party will support it and most of Labour) and the public will get behind it.

    Give us just one concrete proposal then for enabling an unskilled young person oop North to be able to fill an job for a hotel or office cleaner in Central London . Your earlier platitude of simply shifting all those in unskilled jobs in the South East up to Scotland will create vacancies but presumably you would also ship back oop North someone who came down from the North East to fill a vacancy .
    In my experience many of the unskilled or semi skilled jobs in the South East are taken by quite skilled European youngsters who are looking for a couple of years experience and income before going on to University .

    Boris also has a hint of the Churchill about him. His bluff, joshing exterior belies a serious intellect and some major cullions. The kind of PM you want in a time of real extremis. A wartime PM in other words.

    Hi Stephen

    the study is actually a series of studies which are summarised here:

    http://www.internationaltransportforum.org/jtrc/discussionpapers/DiscussionPaper9.pdf

    The paper is actually looking at how to measure the befits of transport infrastructure improvements but section 5 on the micro-level evaluation of infrastructure includes the following:

    “Turning to the impact on business, most studies have been carried out into the impact of the French TGV lines, particularly to examine the relative impacts on Paris and the provincial cities. Although such services led to a substantial growth of traffic, the impact on the local economies of the cities served was much less certain. Generally such services cannot be shown to have had a major impact on the net redistribution of economic activity between Paris and the provincial cities or on the overall rate of growth of these cities.”

    Howz about more work experience schemes that are combined with further education? It would be possible for courses to exist that say involve 2 days a week further education (or in some cases learning to read and write), with 3 days a week earning money. At a low wage I will admit. Give Tescos and every other major company big tax breaks for employing youngsters in such a way. Maybe only paying 3-4 quid an hour with no extra costs involved.

    Why does any hotel in the UK have to employ foreign maids and cleaners when there are unemployed Brits in every said area? I could go on and on ad infinitum on this, but the point is we need to educate youngsters properly and get them experience of a working environment. We see now on sink estates throughout the nation another generation going to hell. Lots of potential Labour votes in that of course so it’s in their best interests to keep the poor poor and uneducated.

    It’s up to us, by which I mean coalition parties supporters to push for better.

    I believe the proposed HS2 is based fully on the TGV spec so that trains can ostensibly run from Paris to Birmingham without having to slow down or have passengers change at Ashford or KX. The technical proposal is basically the same as the what the South Koreans bought from the French 10 years ago which is basically TGV trains/tracks (though they included a bunch of terms and conditions by which Hyundai and Samsung engineers would basically go and learn how to build everything themselves and so never have to go back to the French for more trains or new tracks, sadly our proposal includes no such industrial, err, borrowing).

    Why does any hotel in the UK have to employ foreign maids and cleaners when there are unemployed Brits in every said area?

    Because as I’ve said twice this week the foreign maid turns up, looks eager to work and has previous experience. The local youth provide none of those things.

    99% of the time you employ the person you think will do the job best. Given readily available foreign maids why would you risk employing someone local.

    Absolutely, that’s what makes the idea of a new airport saleable in political and economic terms – Heathrow is terrible for non-Londoners.

    An idea I had was once a new airport has been build and Heathrow useless, we could turn it into a mega industrial and science park within the boundaries of the M25. It is amazingly well connected and has the capacity for a couple of private airstrips for business jets. We could even lease all of the land to a big player like Intel or Google and have them build a secondary world HQ in London and create thousands and thousands of jobs, along with billions in primary and secondary investment from the companies that follow from all across the world.

    The potential for the Heathrow site is huge, and frankly, it is wasted as an airport.

    For a WW2 analogy Cameron is Chamberlain, he thinks by some negotiations and some concessions he can get a ‘reasonable’ agreemment which will satisfy everyone.

    Like Chamberlain he doesn’t understand that he is dealing with fundamental forces and people with beliefs and he has about as much chance of suceess as Chamberlain had of bringing peace and security to eastern Europe in 1938-9.

    Cameron will end up a broken man over this, but not before he has badly damaged this country.

    Britain does suck and it seems everyone just accepts that and has given up. Pity though,I was feeling quite optimistic when Cameron became PM. I think he’s a very decent bloke who wants to do the right thing, but the ‘give up’ mentality of the people seems to be winning the day.

    Since the election large numbers of public sector jobs have been lost. 111,000 in Q2 alone. This is a tough position to be in and to defend – even though its necessary since we cannot afford them. Local govt has to cut its budgets by 28% over 4 years.
    Education and health are being reformed. The mess left by Labour in Defence is being swept up.

    This hardly smacks of not being up to the job. On the other hand we were reminded today of Blair’s fawning over Gadaffi. What a man – what judgement. Oh yes – this is the man who ignored advice and pledged to commit 15% of all energy to be produced by renewables. Almost as good as Brown ignoring advice and selling gold at $200 an ounce and also abolishing ACT against advice.

    David Cameron came into office promising to repatriate power away from the European Union and back to Britain. How exactly does expanding the European state while he’s reducing the British one square with this? It appears to be the direct opposite. In cold, economic terms, he is transferring power to Brussels, to the tune of hundred of millions a year. While calling it an “excellent deal”.

    He isn’t a eurosceptic. He just isn’t.

    Well, depends how you look at it.

    Attlee won most votes three times (45, 50, 51) – but only won two majorities. He lost a GE in 1935 and 1951.

    Wilson also won a majority three times (64, 66, Oct 74), but also got most seats and formed govt (despite getting 200k less votes than Heath in Feb 74 and not getting a majority). He also lost in 70, obviously.

    Blair fought three, got three big majorities, three big leads in popular votes.

    Personally, I think calling Feb 74 a victory and 1951 a defeat mostly just an artifact of the electoral system.

    The full ComRes results are here (No YouGov tonight?):

    - nothing much to add to Mike’s summary except that Labour is ahead on the NHS, as usual, voting certainty is highest among nationalists and…UKIP!….and, perhaps an interesting spot, there’s a huge difference in attitudes to the public sector strikes by age – all age groups short of retirement are strongly sympathetic, while retired people are strongly hostile.

    Thumbs down for both major parties on handling the economy (the Dave+George figures are little better than Ed+Ed despite the credibility of actually being in office), but the interpretation upthread that this shows soft votes is only one possibility – the alternative view is that people who think their party is weak on the economy but are determined to vote for them anyway are actually very hard voters.

    Off-topic – I’ve just been to see Burlesque, the new play at the tiny London Jermyn Street theatre. Not to be confused with the movie, this is a musical about a comedian with a friend who’s a former Communist in the McCarthy era – does the comedian inform on him or lose his career? I’ve only once been to such a tiny theatre, but it works well, and the show scintillates with subtlety and avoids the obvious temptations of hamming up a serious subject, while still managing to be fun. Not perfect – the singing’s a bit uneven – but a good night out.

    This argument you use is facile.

    There is an existing budget, there are always negotiations to set the new level.

    It is not a red line issue. It s not a veto issue, it is general housekeeping, so get the best deal you can.

    2%, or below domestic inflation is a pretty small increase. How about the other question, What increase was agreed pa 2000 to 2010? Compare to those figures before spouting off about fictional Euro expansion.

    Thats a hard fact for socialist cheerleaders to follow — but it’s there all the same.

    See link for total insanity from the Archbishop of Canterbury.

    This is totally contrary to public opinion.

    If we get an elected House of Lords there is absolutely no reason at all to have 12 Bishops given places automatically. Only Iran also has places reserved in its Parliament for its religious leaders. It’s a complete outrage.
