How can they do a named candidate poll when we have no idea who the Labour candidate is ?
Nevertheless the fact that Berger and the LDs have established sufficient profile to be out in front in a seat poll is big news - even if the seat poll itself is pretty worthless potentially far out from a hypothetical election.

Just replicating likely general election conditions ?
I'm assured, on stacks of bibles, that the local Conservative (or Con) Club has nothing whatsoever to do with the political party of that name.
I'm very interested because they're about to hold a beer festival with all beers (and ciders) at £3 a pint. The poster says it it's open to non-members, but I'm a bit worried about being seen there.
As has been pointed out single seat polls have not had a good record of success.
Note the poll, from Farage's favourite pollster, was commissioned by the LDs.

I didnt know you thought that possible!
It is very tight but they just take the biscuit
I know that Survation carried out a poll for BREX at Peterborough that had LAB winning.
I wish some on here would recognise that.
I'm one of the 3% of LD voters who think its both right to leave, and would still do it anyway.
I don't support a No Deal exit in two weeks time, but lets be honest, that's not happening is it?

I think a lot of "second referendum" polling respondees are actually answering "If you could go back to June 2016, how would you vote?" regardless of the actual question they are asked.
Con 29%
Lab 27%
LD 14%
Brx 12%
SNP 3%
Others 5%
Maybe Dont Knows account for remainder.
SDP surge ?
Indeed, I do wonder if continued negotiations causing our PM to ask for an extension is their plan.
Edit: final release appears to have DK excluded.

Do you?
How much more "respect" are you looking for?
In this case there were 79 18-34 year olds in the sample and their responses were scaled up to 121.
The referendum instruction was to leave
The general election established a body of people who should have oversight on the executive’s negotiations on *how* we leave
They have taken it on themselves to try and ignore the referendum mandate instead
Not for me to pronounce on which is correct (if there is such a thing), but I don't think you can really accuse Parliament of "trying to ignore the referendum mandate", given that they've spent the last three years talking about little else.
If X says or does something stupid, they're free to do so. It's possible to accept that they have the freedom to do so while still thinking that what they're doing or saying is irredeemably foolish. This idea that you should be entitled to have your decisions (as opposed to your right to take decisions) respected seems to me to be twaddle.
We'd do far better as a society to call things out for what they are than have all this pious humbug about respecting what we consider to be other people's stupidity, even if that means that our own nonsense is also called out by others.
That sense of “ignore”... 😂
Methadone is quote expensive, I suppose.
Let’s say that the electorate votes in a Corbyn majority to Parliament
No matter how stupid they have been the have the right to have their decision respected and for Corbyn to form the next government
Its also a public blog - we can all add what we like. Do you have a problem with that?
She certainly can win. I think she will struggle.
For the record, I can't stand the woman. She comes in here (Merseyside) and gets dumped in a nice safe Labour seat. When her politics change, she neither holds a by-election in her own seat, but then scuttles off to a more winnable seat just because she knows she'll get an absolute kicking.
I do hope she fails in her bid, despite probably going to vote LD myself at the next GE.

The whole thread is worth looking at.
Fortunately you seem to be well out of tune with the public.
No one said we could leave the day after the vote. EVERYONE said there would be at least two year negotiations. That we've run to three is unfortunate but hardly disasterous.
