Murdoch’s daily poll to go on holiday until January 4th

I don’t know whether this is good news or bad news but YouGov tell me that tonight’s daily poll for Rupert Murdoch’s News International will be the last of 2010 and we’ll have to wait until January 4th 2011 for the next one.

So all those who hover round their PCs at 10pm every night waiting for the latest news on the political mood of the YouGov panel, if not the nation, are going to have to do without.

I’d be surprised if there’s anything from another pollster though it might just be that we’ll see an Oldham & Saddleworth survey.

So it’s cold turkey time, quite literally given the time of year, for polling anoraks.

PB will be operating a reduced service over the Christmas period with a number of guest slots, news of our prediction competition for 2010 as well as the 2011 contest. I’m also hoping to stage the hardy annual – the annual election for PB’s poster of the year.
