Labour trails by 15 points

This morning's poll in the Indy will be taken a sign that the public are fed up with Labour's attempts at fixing the economy.The result ,which would give David Cameron a 120 majority if repeated in an election,puts the party back exactly where it was before last autumn's banking crisis.

Mike Smithson looks at another pointer in this and other recent polls and says

You can’t treat the precise numbers as accurate measures but the picture of
sizeable slabs of 2005 Labour and Lib Dem voters now saying they will go Tory is
common amongst the three firms. The question is will these voters stay until
election day?


and reminding us that

All elections are about niches like this in the 60 to 100 key seats where the outcome will be decided and what’s interesting is that the proportion of switchers has been increasing


So the question is how can Labour get at these target voters or have their minds alreday been made up
