Ed Miliband - My Fake Diary

Saturday, 15 September 2012

Labour's lead over the Conservatives would be wiped out if Boris Johnson took over from David Cameron, a poll published on Wednesday revealed.

A survey of 1,871 people conducted by YouGov for The Sun showed the Tories are currently trailing Labour by 31% to 42%.

If a general election were held today this would help Labour secure a sizeable overall majority of 92 seats.

But, if the Tories staged a coup against the prime minister and installed Boris as leader the party would be neck-and-neck with Labour with 37% compared to Labours 38% of the vote, results showed.

Confusing isn't it?
