NEW: @IpsosMORI political monitor is out, giving us final pre-election figures for leader approval:
• Corbyn remains the most unpopular major party leader going into an election since data was first recorded
• Taken together, these two are the most unpopular pairing we’ve seen

• Taken together, these two are the most unpopular pairing we’ve seen
@IpsosMORI We can also take a look at @YouGov’s more granular time series to see how things are moving in the final week:
• Corbyn is certainly trending up, but still lags more than 20 points behind his 2017 numbers at the same stage
• Johnson now broadly where May was at the same stage
• Corbyn is certainly trending up, but still lags more than 20 points behind his 2017 numbers at the same stage
• Johnson now broadly where May was at the same stage
@IpsosMORI @YouGov Voters are historically unimpressed with these leaders, but negative partisanship is likely to put Johnson back into number 10.
Numerous surveys suggest it may be anti-Corbyn sentiment over and above pro-Johnson feelings or Brexit attitudes that determine events on Thursday.
