Today’s Populus poll should at least calm some nerves in the red camp
Only changes are LD up CON down all within margin or error
Whenever a new poll comes up showing two or three points changes someone always comes on to say it is all within the margin of error. And so it is from a mathematical point of view.

But most “consumers” of poll don’t react in that way – it is an emotional thing particularly during a highly charged political period that we are going through at the moment.
So today’s Populus figures will have an impact and calm a few nerves on the Labour side
What we really want is EP2014 polling and hopefully there’ll be a range of number over the weekend.
