A week's a long time in politics.
There's so many scandals coming to light, on all sides, perhaps the opinion polls should be taken hourly.
Ring, ring.
Hello Mr Jaysay, I'm calling on behalf of YouGov, could I enquire which candidate you are planning to vote for in the forthcoming General Election?
Thank you for your help, and time. That's most helpful.
Goodbye.

Re: The Tory "dirty tricks brigade" and the media
All I can say is. I would rather not have another Margaret Thatcher in power, and Cameron is from the same kind of mold,or should that be mould. She did so much damage to this Country that I said when she went:: It will take 20 years of a Labour government to repair the damage she has done. The 20 years is not up yet...Listening to everybody and their dog mouthing off about who should do what, and the crime, thieving, cheating, ETC of polaticians, bankers, and whoever can get their hands on unearned money, Holidays, free this and that. The nation is a crooked place to live....but this example is set by the very people that we should trust....Get rid of the rubbish, and give the job to (1) Vince Cable (2) Robert Peston (BBC ) And give them a free reigne to pick who they want to help them in the quest for a passage out of the stormy weather we are in now.....Com'on Captain Vince, snap out the orders lad, make the country jump to order.......

Why not! The Farce that is the so called Palace of Westminster should be reconstituted as The Palace of Varieties with the current bunch of third rate music hall artists relegated to sweeping the floors.

To be quite honest I have never ever had a call pollsters ever, and I'm a captive audience

Perhaps your down on a list somewhere, as not being a 'swinger'.
