Our figures show that voters are generally optimistic about the direction of the country. They are even more optimistic about their own personal circumstances.

In October last year 53% thought the country was heading in the right direction. That plunged to 41% in May this year. Those who thought the country was heading in the wrong direction went from 28% to 42%. There has been a significant reversal in these figures with 49% thinking the country is heading in the right direction now and 36% disagreeing.
