But excellent news for the rest of us.

Looks like we are finally seeing some turn. Given that Labour seemed to have positioned themselves on the poor economy ticket (despite having caused it in the first place), what will they do now given this sort of news ?

mikey....agreed....electorate are liking Labour as you link shows........BUT

http://www.theguardian.com/politics/2013/aug/24/ed-miliband-labour-opinium-poll-ratings

as long as Mr Milliband isn't leading it.
Evening Sqad. Yes you are right about Ed's popularity.

But in the same link you can see that about 20% believe him to be doing well and 68 badly. But Dave is 36-55, and Cleggie is 19-67. There is no recorded figures for the ghastly Farage, but perhaps the interviewers got tired of asking, after so many people said "who ? "

So the question is, if Ed's personal ratings are so low, why is it that Labour has remained consistently high for so long ?

Before anybody points out that there is still just under 2 years left to go before the 2015 election...I agree ! May we live in interesting times !
mikey...LOL...maybe!
Did you know that on election day the Manufacturing PMI was higher than it is today?

The trajectory was going up, had been for 18 months.
After 18 months of Osborne it had plummeted back down again to 44 (50 is no growth).
Only now, after 3 years of the boy genius, has it climbed back up to just below where it was when Labour left power. 3 wasted years.

Of course, the manufacturing base has decrease in the last 3 years, so you are getting growth but from a far smaller number of companies, so a bit of a misleading stat.

I am sure Milliband and Balls would sooner inherit an economy that was in growth, has it had been for the year preceding the election, than one that -5 in negative growth.
