Poll Shows That People Just Don't Believe Ed Miliband Can Run Things Empty Poll Shows That People Just Don't Believe Ed Miliband Can Run Things

I said it a few months ago - I honestly think Ed is unelectable.


Ed Miliband’s economic credibility took another tumble yesterday after his lacklustre response to the Budget.

A new survey found that fewer than one in four voters say they trust the Labour leader to run the economy.

Mr Miliband’s support has dropped 10 points since January to 23 per cent while 21 per cent said the Budget had reduced their trust in his ability to manage the economy. Mr Miliband polls even worse than his party with 31 per cent of voters backing Labour to run UK Plc.

The telephone survey of 1,600 voters after the Budget by public affairs firm Edelman found that 37 per cent trust the Tories and 23 per cent said the Budget had increased their trust in Conservatives to manage the economy.

The data came amid growing disquiet among Labour MPs that Mr Miliband and shadow Chancellor Ed Balls have now botched their response to the Budget and George Osborne’s Autumn Statement last December.

There were also signs of tension between the two men yesterday after Mr Balls said Mr Miliband had a ‘difficult’ time because he relied on Twitter to predict the contents of the Budget and revealed that he had spent much of Mr Osborne’s speech trying to wake up Communities Secretary Eric Pickles.

An ally of Ed Miliband told the Mail: ‘We always knew it was going to be a difficult Budget with the economy on the turn. It was not made easier by Ed Balls.’
