YouGov poll has 100 majority for Cameron with preference for Clarke as chancellor

YouGov voting intentionIn a YouGov poll for Sky News, The Tories lead with 43 points, Labour up slightly on 29 and the Liberal Democrats feel the squeeze on 17. Running this through Electoral Calculus gives David Cameron a majority of 100 if this were replicated on polling day.

But the most interesting results are arguably an even 44/44 split on Tory plans to raise the retirement age to 66 and 28% preferring Ken Clarke in HM Treasury as compared to 21% for the actual shadow chancellor George Osborne.

Better continue with that ‘deep voice’ coaching, George.
