The word 'official' separates them from the other 25 (or more) raving loonies

That's going to split the vote. Could ruin their chances. Shame.

Re: Reform UK's chronicles
Scales are coming off the public's eyes
Quote:
Nigel Farage is now even less popular than Starmer was before the PM resigned
Nigel Farage’s popularity among the public has plummeted to its lowest level in the past ten years, a new YouGov survey has found, placing him below Keir Starmer just before the PM resigned.
The pollster found just 22% have a favourable view of the Reform UK leader, while 68% are unfavourable – including 56% who say they are very unfavourable.
That 46% gap between his negative and positive rating is bigger than the 45% recorded by Starmer before he announced he was stepping down.
It is also bigger than the 42% gap between favourable and unfavourable ratings for Boris Johnson immediately after the first ‘Partygate’ revelations.

i think it's written before the survey happens,if you're paying for a survey you want it to reflect your agenda

Yes, the YouGov guys who failed to predict the Brexit win in the referendum.
They weren’t the only ones, mind.

Re: Reform UK's chronicles
Simply amazing how these polling companies are judged as being either good or awful depending on whether their data suggests a particular party is doing well or badly.

I thought they were judged on how well their results matched what someone wanted them to say.

Re: Reform UK's chronicles
They're judged on how well they ultimately reflect the results of elections.
They make their money on being trusted to do market research correctly; elections are just a small part of what they do, but if they're seen to be wrong, then it impacts their business. Companies want to commission reliable pollsters.

Re: Reform UK's chronicles
Just because I know you all love polls
Quote:
Labour has overtaken Reform UK for the first time in more than a year in a leading opinion poll after Andy Burnham’s first week in Downing Street.
The More in Common poll found 28 per cent of the public would vote for Labour if a general election were held tomorrow. This was four percentage points higher than the 24 per cent of respondents who said they would back Reform, Nigel Farage’s party.
The survey of 2,061 adults carried out between July 24 and July 27 showed Labour had gained 4 percentage points, while Reform had lost 2 points, compared with a poll the think tank conducted on July 22.

That number (or very close to it) keeps cropping up . . do you think these 'polling' companies all have the same list of 'random' people?
