Apparently so - and this weekend's poll will be the last of 2013 for YouGov as well.

Populus @populuspolls New Populus VI figures: Lab 40 (+1); Cons 32 (=); LD 11 (-1); UKIP 9 (=); Oth 8 (=) There seems to be a lot of head-scratching going on in the Tory Party at the moment about why this supposedly record-breaking economic 'recovery' is not boosting their poll numbers. Matthew Hancock was on the Today programme this morning touting some dodgy statistics which purported to show that average incomes after tax were rising. Nice try, but Joe Public just has to look at his pay slip, his bank statement, gas bill or supermarket receipt to see that ain't true...... When they talk about 'average' they need to define median, mode & mean. The poll figures seem to reflect that any economic 'gains' aren't being shared.

The worst thing they could do is to come across as complacent and out of touch. Declaring people are better off when most people don't believe they are seems like a surefire route to alienating their target audience.

I'm really surprised they're pushing that strategy I'm not - there seems to be a persistent belief in Tory HQ (and its tame media mouthpieces like Finkelstein and Brogan) that there is some "magic bullet" out there which will make everybody love the government, if only it could be uncovered. It fundamentally misunderstands why many people are unhappy with them.

There's a lag between a recovery starting and people feeling it in their pockets. Once the economy is starting to grow, companies start to get more orders. Once the orders are coming in, companies then start to feel confident about hiring more staff and considering pay rises, when that time of the year comes round again. People have to have had a pay rise for a few months before they start to feel flush again.
The economy is moving again so pay will start to move before long. Inflation is down a bit too, which will help.

you are taking a big presumption there that this so called recovery is actually even across the country and is hitting those the Tories need to vote. the irony of this if people start to see this in their pockets the LD's will not pick up any votes over it. do you as a LD really think this recovery is actually solid and not just a debt and savings driven one ?

Yes, the key point is that real wages started stagnating around 2003. This was an underrated contributor to Labour's defeat in 2010, as many voters hit by the recession felt they hadn't shared in (the latter part of) the good times.

Populus seems to be much more stable day-to-day than does YouGov - changes are only very rarely more than one percentage point. Whereas YouGov shows frequent sampling variation.

Be interested if the Inter quartile range shows it. The middle half would be where I thought swing Con/Lab voters were concentrated.
