Just seen this from IpsosMori...
The barrier of FPTP 'wasted vote' is being overcome. Very dangerous for the Tories in particular.

I don't mean to belittle that achievement, because that is a great shift. But I suspect part of that change in response will be coming from people parroting the media which in the wake of the Clacton result mentioned in just about every conservative interview "If you vote UKIP you don't get labour you get UKIP".
When people answer these types of poll questions they often try to put their opinion aside and just end up saying what the news has said.
Oh indeed, but then isn't a lot of party politics about media presentation/perception and momentum?
