Poll alert

John Rentoul

comres Poll alertWe have a ComRes opinion poll in The Independent on Sunday tomorrow, shared with the Sunday Mirror. We wanted to know if the Government would gain popularity after the Olympics, and we also asked people if they agreed or disagreed with a number of other statements:

The Olympics will probably boost the British economy
I think that the general economic condition of the country will improve over the next 12 months
I have scaled back my holiday plans to save money
The London 2012 Olympics have made me feel more proud of Britain
Some members of my family intend to take part in more sport as a result of the Olympics
The Paralympics are more about political correctness than about excellence in sport
I sometimes feel uncomfortable around people with disabilities
People with disabilities are often regarded as second rate citizens
Scotland should be an independent country
I would prefer Labour and the Liberal Democrats to form a government rather than the present coalition between Conservatives and Liberal Democrats
Being in coalition with the Conservatives has shown the Liberal Democrats to be a credible party of government
David Cameron was right to abandon the attempt to make changes to the House of Lords
Nick Clegg was right to say that Liberal Democrat MPs will vote against the plans to reduce the number of MPs and change constituency boundaries

I shall post the results here tonight, and the full tables will be on the ComRes website.

    If the poll is tomorrow how can you post the results tonight?

    Have you rigged the outcome or simply utterly lost the plot?
