Bradshaw rues faulty opinion polls
Andrew Hawkins, of polling company ComRes, and Labour MP Ben Bradshaw joined Jo Coburn on The Daily Politics to discuss a review by Prof Patrick Sturgis into the failure of pre-general election polls.
Mr Hawkins said there were 鈥渃learly sampling issues鈥 that affected the accuracy of the polls and said the
report鈥檚 findings would affect some companies more than others.
Mr Bradshaw said the polls 鈥渕assively affected鈥 Labour鈥檚 campaign strategy.
He said Labour had tried to 鈥済et the debate back to policy鈥 but the campaign was 鈥渄ominated鈥 by speculation about a hung Parliament.
