David Cameron’s Tories Slump to a New Low

SUNDAY EXPRESS: DAVID CAMERON’S embattled premiership suffered a hammer blow last night as support for the Conservative Party crashed to its lowest level for a decade.

An exclusive poll for the Sunday Express puts the Tories on just 29 per cent while Labour has soared to 43 per cent.

The fuel shortage fiasco, George Osborne’s disastrous Budget, a series of embarrassing U-turns on tax and a flatline economy have seen a resurgent Labour eclipse the Conservatives.

Ed Miliband’s party now stands 14 points clear of the Tories, putting it on course for an outright majority in a general election.

The gap between Labour and the Conservatives is now wider than at any time since December 2002 when former Tory leader Iain Duncan Smith faced the on-going popularity of a pre-Gulf war Tony Blair. » | Kirsty Buchanan | Sunday, June 10, 2012
