大象传媒/ICM
Poll for 大象传媒 ONE's Vote 2003
Fewer
people believe Prime Minister Tony Blair is delivering on health,
education and the economy than did 12 months ago, a poll suggests.
The
大象传媒/ICM poll was carried out for last night's 大象传媒 ONE programme
Vote 2003 (Thursday 1 May 2003, 10.35 pm), on the eve of elections
for the Scottish Parliament, Welsh Assembly and for more than 340
councils in England.
In
2002, 61% thought Labour was delivering a "strong economy"
- today, 50% agree;
In
2002, 37% thought Labour was delivering on "education, education,
education" - today this figure is 30%;
In
2002, 31% thought Tony Blair was delivering on his pledge to "save
the NHS" - today that figure is 29%.
The
poll also makes difficult reading for the Conservative Party.
Just
12% say the Conservatives are in touch with ordinary people;
11%
say that the Conservatives have a "good set of leaders";
11%
say the party can be "trusted to keep its promises";
18%
say that Iain Duncan Smith makes the best leader of the Conservatives.
There
is also evidence that people have lost faith with all three political
parties when it comes to the NHS.
42%
say that no party can be "trusted to run the NHS".
28%
said they would trust Labour to do so, 20% the Liberal Democrats
and 15% the Conservatives.
More
than half of British people rate Mr Blair聮s personal qualities
favourably 聳 just weeks after the war in Iraq.
However,
they still believe he is too concerned with spin and too influenced
by rich people:
69%
of people think Tony Blair "has firm principles";
54%
believe the Prime Minister is "tough";
68%
believe he is "a nice man";
64%
believe he is too concerned with spin;
51%
believe he is too "influenced by the rich".
