UKIP move up in tonight’s phone polls while the Tories slip back

The day has seen three new GE15 polls all of them completed after UKIP success in the by-elections on Thursday. Populus online which came out this morning showed no change for the party but the two phone polls, ICM and Ashcroft, reported increases.

ICM had Farage’s party moving up 5% to 14% while Ashcroft recorded 19% for the purples – up 2 and equalling the highest ever share that his polling has found.

So less than two weeks after the Tory conference the party is slipping back mostly due to UKIP which continues to attract far more ex-CON voters and ex-LAB ones. The ratio is continuing to run at more than two to one.
