Polling news

Didn't see anyone mention this poll (pdf file, sorry John) earlier in the week, so just to bring it to your attention, here's a few snippets from it:

Asking 'Do you think X is doing well or badly as (his job)?' Blair gets 41% saying 'very well' or 'fairly well' against 57% saying 'very badly' or 'fairly badly', Howard scores 38% well against 47% badly, Kennedy gets 53% well against 30% badly and Gordon Brown gets 57% well against 33% badly.

49% think the US and Britain were wrong to take military action against Iraq, compared to 39% who thought they were right.

35% of people think the Conservatives have an excellent or fairly good chance of forming the next government against 59% who think they have a not very good or not at all good chance.

Perhaps most interestingly, more people think the Conservatives are united (30%) than think Labour are united (18%) - the question wasn't asked about the Liberal Democrats, but I'm sure that won't stop the usual suspects going on about the 'Liberal Democrat Civil War'.

Finally, just to prove it's a survey for the Mail on Sunday there are quite a few questions about house prices. There weren't any voting intention questions asked.
