An interesting analysis by YouGov President Peter Kellner in examing the Ukip demographic base and the shift. The article can be read here: http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2014/nov/17/ukip-support-british-politics-voters-labour-party
An interesting load of polling there, of course you can simply say that it is just one poll from one pollster but the trends with the Greens and the SNP in Scotland over recent weeks have been clear to see. Discontent with the main established parties, if it continues to the General Election, are making this General Election probably the hardest in a century to even begin to predict - the polling situation at the moment is very very very unique. It could all melt away of course and people could go flocking back, or are we seeing a permanent breakdown?
The biggest and most historic shift above though is that Scotland map: it's breathtaking.
Thoughts? In 2015 are you planning to vote for Labour/Conservatives or one of the others?
