Dancing Round The May Poll

It’s another bad news day for Prime Minister Gordon Brown as a poll shows that Labour’s support has plummeted to the lowest level since records began in 1930.

According to the YouGov poll, at 23% the Labour Party is trailing 26 points behind the Tories, who have an approval rating of 49%. The result is even worse news for the PM than the hammering his party took at the local elections last week.

Speculation is now rife concerning possible successors to a man who is now seen as an electoral liability by many in the Labour movement. However, some polls have suggested that other Labour figures may be even less popular than the grim, haggard shell of a man currently occupying the top job. In a random survey carried out by the Nev Filter in the pub last night, the weirdo propping up the corner of the bar said you might as well have an undertaker running the country, while a fit Polish bird slapped our reporter and the landlord said bring back Maggie.
