Stunning study by @yougov for @philipjcowley and @QMUL
exclusively in tonight's @EveningStandard

@YouGov @philipjcowley @QMUL @EveningStandard Big Story: Labour set to fall short of wiunning Wandsworth & Westminster

Labour are miles ahead .... but note the fallback in Inner London

INNER LONDON:
Labour 59 (down 8 from Feb)
Cons 22 (up 5)

That's likely to cost them the two big prizes, says @philipjcowley at @QMUL

Labour should win Barnet - a big win if that happens - and it would be the first time it turns red since Maggie Thatcher's old borough was created in 1964.

Here's a figure to horrify and depress decent Tories:

Only 13 per cent of Black and Minority Ethnic Londoners say they will vote Conservative next Thursday.

75% of black Londoners will back Labour.

That's a long term disaster, don't you agree @philipjcowley of @QMUL

Obvious question, but was that dramatic Labour fall-back in Inner London connected with @jeremycorbyn 's perceived failure to stop anti-Semitism?

If so it may have cost Labour the top scalps in their sights: Wandsworth & Westminster .....

..... and another thing.

Several Tory MPs told me privately that the London results will decide whether they send a letter to the 1922 Chairman.

So the Labour fall-back, reprieving totemic Wandsworth, may have averted a Tory leadership crisis.

Labour needs to hold an inquest
