This is the front page of today’s Sunday Express. Their web-site does not seem to have a link to the body of the story but it appears that a “secret” internal survey is suggesting that the Tories are in the lead.

Quite what the substance of the story is or why the survey’s contents have been leaked to a paper not usually friendly to the party is not clear?

The next “proper” poll should be the March survey by Populus for the Times which will probably be published on Tuesday. The February Populus poll had Labour 41, Tories 32, the LDs 18. If there is indeed any substance in the Express report then we would expect that to be reflected by Populus.
