Poll puts Conservatives six points ahead

A new Guardian/ICM poll shows a Conservative lead of six points. David Cameron’s party is on 39% with Labour on 33%. Earlier today a separate Populus poll put the parties back on level pegging after a week of positive polls for the Labour party.

Full ICM results. Polling carried out between 10th and 12th April.

CON 39 (+3)

LAB 33 (-2)

LIB 8 (-2)

UKIP 7 (-2)

GRN 7 (+3)

Martin Boon, of ICM Unlimited, said: “There is inevitably random variation between different polls, which generally falls within a ‘margin of error’ of plus or minus three points. The movement we’ve recorded since the March survey is within that normal bound, albeit only just.”
