    Not a cult - Leader net approval rating among VI (i.e. Con VI on May, Lab on Corbyn etc):

    May: +59
    Corbyn: +70
    Sturgeon: +94

    Interesting 'forced choice' on 'Best PM' - May vs Corbyn.

    While overall its pretty evenly split, within that there are clear preferences - and the divisions are along age - not class, lines:

    May / Corbyn/ None + DK

    OA: 34 / 30 / 36
    Younger Professionals: 26 / 38 / 36
    Younger Blue Collar: 29 / 37 / 34
    Older Professionals: 38 / 28 / 33
    Older Blue Collar: 37 / 24 / 39
    Retired ABC1: 53 / 16 / 32
    Retired C2DE: 43 / 16 / 40
    Not Working: 24 / 38 / 38

    I backed Mayweather @ 1.19 back at the start of July and he's now out to 1.29.

    What fucking planet is this?

    Surely that’s free money? Mayweather should be 1/100 for this fight.

    Disclaimer: I had a bag of sand at 1.25 for the Tories to get a majority at the election, so what do I know?
    Read an article that the vast majority of bets have been on MacGregor.
    I've put a bit on Mayweather but honestly I don't trust boxing that much... is there a chance it could be rigged? set up a rematch for even more money!

    But just what is that sort of polling supposed to teach us?

    You'd have said "Disapprove" because you don't want us to leave.
    I'd have also said "Disapprove" because we haven't said No Deal, stuck two fingers up at 'em and nuked Madrid on the way out the door.

    So it seems a little pointless as an educational exercise.
    I suspect you are in a small minority with no deal being preferred.
    In any case - the trend was always going to e negative whilst discussions go on. - surely what matters is polling after the deal is done.

    Cameron's negotiation probably polled okay since he talked tough. But when the dust settled it pleased no one.

    Yes, but all of those different motivations - some small, some not, add up to produce a meaningless whole.

    I almost certainly guarantee that I'll poll "Unhappy" with the final deal. And then I'll get lumped in the same anti-Brexit group as Scott'n'Paste.

    All of Scott's posts are the same. Either:

    1) Brexit is shit. Or..
    2) Scottish nationalists are shit.

    For about 6 weeks around general election time he does a 'Labour are shit' gig.
