Poll

The April Guardian poll (reported on below ) which gave Labour a 5% lead on 38% to the Tories 33% now has the voting intention data (earlier it just had the Iraq war data).

I found it interesting (keep in mind this poll is with Labour on a 5% lead) that voting patterns are very clearly class-based with the Labour/Tory split 40/28, 39/31, 28/43, 26/50 for AB, C1, C2, DE with all four groups roughly equal in size. The ABs don't like Labour much, and indeed with them the Lib Dems score highest with 26%, only 2% behind Labour.
