And more dreadful rating numbers for the embattled LAB leader

With the ballots due to go out in the LAB leadership contest in two and a bit weeks every new poll is going to be looked at in the context of its impact on the race.

The main case against Mr. Corbyn is that outside his group of wildly enthusiastic supporters he looks like an election loser. If the party is to have any chance at all, his detractors argue, then he has to be replaced.

There is a little bit of comfort for Team Corbyn in one of the the two new polls out today. YouGov have it as

CON 38% (-4)
LAB 31% (+3)
LD 8% (-)
UKIP 13% (+1)
OTH 11% (+1)

CON 39%
LAB 26%
UKIP 11%
LD 10%
GRN 7%

But that was not all as the following Tweets set out. But TNS published another poll with a very different picture with various findings which are directly about the Labour leader who less than two month ago lost a confidence motion when 80% of his MPs voted again him.
