Commenting on today’s polls, a spokesperson for Jeremy Corbyn’s campaign said:
“We do not usually comment on polls, but given the debate about who is best placed to win, it is worth noting the following. The national Survation poll and the YouGov poll of Londoners both point to an emerging, clear fact – that Jeremy Corbyn reaches voters beyond Labour’s existing vote, and that he has a strong electability-factor based on his ability to take on David Cameron and stand up for ordinary people. These polls show the value of leadership – straight-talking politics that give people hope and a real sense that winning with a better kind of politics is possible.”
