Labour heading for Crushing Defeat in Crewe

An ICM poll for The Guardian this morning shows the lowest levels of support for Labour, since records began in 1984. The poll has the Conservatives on 41 (up two), Labour on 27 (down 7) and the Lib Dems on 22 (up 3). Brown is behind David Cameron on every aspect. Alarmingly for Labour, of the people who voted Labour in 2005, three quarters think Blair was a better Prime Minister than Brown. Details.

The Independent also has a new poll out this morning for the Crewe and Nantwich by-election, which has the Conservatives 13 points ahead of Labour, their largest showing to date. Labours’s surge tactics and negative campaigning has certainly paid off (for the Conservatives!). Details.
