Another day another Poll but perhaps good news for Gordon

More bad poll news this time in the Guardian whose latest ICM poll reveals that regardless of who is leading the Labour party,David Cameron would be our next Prime Minister

The Tories are on 44%, up one, Labour on 29%, up one, and the Liberal Democrats are unchanged on 19%. At a general election, that would translate into the loss of 140 Labour seats and a majority of more than 100 for the Tories. Though Labour's share of the vote has crept up in the last two months, the result is still its worst August rating since the early 1980s

Over at Political betting Mike Smithson thinks that it is not all bad news though.

This is NOT the “named leader question” which ICM and Populus asked regularly in the months upto Brown’s arrival at Number 10. This sought to establish people’s voting intention with the the different leaders

.and adding

Back in the Brown build-up days there were several polls which had those responding saying he would be a better PM than Cameron but at the same time showing that Labour would be worse off when the voting intention question was asked.
