MORI Poll shows that Milliband is now more unpopular than Clegg

[vinyl]

I came upon this remarkable report regarding a MORI poll on the popularity of the party leaders.

 

 

 

Labour's Ed Miliband is the least-liked of the three main party leaders, according to pollsters, despite Nick Clegg admitting he is so hated people have spat on him and posted dog mess through his letterbox.

 

Mr Miliband is less popular than his party, the poll found

 

 

 

Mr Miliband was liked by 36% of the people Ipsos Mori asked. Prime Minister David Cameron was most-liked (47%) followed by his Deputy Prime Minister, Liberal Democrat leader Nick Clegg (40%).

 

Conservative leader Mr Cameron was also the least disliked of the three, despite his government’s plan to implement severe spending cuts.

 

Around 46% said they did not like the Prime Minister; while Mr Miliband and Mr Clegg were both disliked by 51% of those surveyed.

 

The figures contrast with the fortunes of the political parties themselves.

Milliband was never going to be liked. He is Labour's Hague or Ian Duncan Smith or Menzies Campbell - a "caretaker" until they're ready for power again.

 

Not only that but he wasn't even the popular choice. And throw in his continued refusal to say how Labour would have done things and that's a recipe for hate.

The whole thing sort of amused me. The say yes to AV group are keeping Clegg out of the spotlight because he is unpopular but it turns out they've replaced him with someone even more despised. It's as though they want the campaign to fail. :huh:

I am not surprised at all by this. Much of the way that people feel about someone is down to the fact that they believe everything they read /see in the media, who are masters of manipulation.

I don't particularly like any of the main party leaders.

 

All are as bland as each other.

So perhaps Clegg was never unpopular at all.

That can't be right. Clegg is a massive hate figure. Miliband at worst creates mild criticism.

:hihi::hihi: How do you explain away the fact that his party are struggling to get 10% in the opinion polls? or is it inspite of Nick!

Perhaps this more recent poll gives a truer picture - especially as it hasn't been filtered by Murdochs hacks.

"

There is little to separate Cameron and Miliband in terms of their personal ratings; around two-fifths are satisfied with each (44% and 41% respectively). Around a third (35%) are satisfied with Nick Clegg, although half are dissatisfied (53%).

 

Cameron maintains his lead as the most capable Prime Minister by half of the public (45%), compared with a quarter who say Miliband (25%) and fewer than one in ten who say Clegg (7%)."

That seems to have stopped 'em in their tracks!
