The Guardian reports the latest results from their ICM poll today:

Although David Cameron is judged to have the best policies on tax after a week dominated by his party’s national insurance plans, that perception does not appear to be translating into votes, with support for the Tories is as low as at any point in the last two years

Earlier today a YouGov poll just for London showed the Conservatives 3-points ahead too at 38%, Labour at 35% and Libdems at 16%.

But this should not be taken as indicative of the entire country, since the swing to the Tories here has been significant enough for them to win 12 seats, as the Standard reports.

UK Polling report explains more about that poll:

It is a significant narrowing of the Conservative lead in London since their last poll, though this one is a lot more in line with other YouGov polling. YouGov’s previous London poll showed a towering 8 point swing, whereas this one shows 5 point swing, much closer to what YouGov’s national polls are showing. On these figures, London seems to be behaving in a pretty similar fashion to the rest of the country.

The daily YouGov national tracker poll is also expected tonight around 10pm.

Update, here’s results from today’s YouGov poll:
Conservative 39%
Labour 33%
Liberal Democrat 20%
Others 8%
