As postal voting starts in Richmond Park the yellows back in double figures
The LAB and CON changes are both beyond the normal margin of error. It should be noted that the CON share of 47% in the October survey from Ipsos MORI was not matched in other polls and might well have been an outlier.
Clearly everything over the past weeks has been focussed on WH2016 and BREXIT with little focus on the normal internal Westminster machinations.
These days we get very few Westminster voting polls and Labour will be much relieved to be back in the 30s.
The Richmond Park by-election is two weeks tomorrow.
