Tories dump new pollsters
Just a few months after they dumped YouGov, it now appears the Tories have ditched ICM as their pollsters. Or perhaps ICM ditched them?"Earlier this week, the party's pollsters ICM walked out because, it appears, central office refused to accept their finding that health and education, rather than Europe, are the issues of most concern to voters and thus, logically, the most fertile ground for campaigning"
Either way it doesn't bode well for the Conservatives. Watching the 1979 election coverage on TV (of which more later) it's hard not to notice the Tories picking up lots of seats in London and other cities. It's almost impossible to imagine the Conservative Party at present achieving this.
