So it appears a new pollster is up and running - their first published survey has Lab 40 Con 32 LibDem 10 Green 6. To be updated weekly, apparently.

They seem to be an UK operation of Italian pollster Tecnè, with an adjustment for pronunciation.

Is it too early yet to wonder which pollster might put the Tories back in the lead at some point?

This poll apparently claims that only 1% of 2019 Tory voters are switching to Labour. Hmmmm.

The point is, no other pollster is showing anything like such a low figure (though they do vary)

In 2017 I remember someone on UKPollingReport predict Tories regained the lead by November. As it was it wasn't till March the following year

Their polls seem remarkably consistent, with little movement from one to the next.
Does that make them more credible?

Also remarkably little switching from 2019 Con voters to Labour now (just 2% in this one) compared to all other pollsters, which does raise questions.

pollsters often say that changes in polling numbers are often just 'noise' and sometimes you have to cut through that. I remember reading that Lyton Crosby doesn't bother with headline figures, just reads the underlying information.
I think low direct switchers isn't a massive issue. Labour's leads are mostly a product of tory to don't knows

The point about this pollster is that it is very much an outlier here.
