Panelbase & the 2017 General Election

8 June 2017

DRG’s in-house panel, Panelbase, conducted a number of UK-wide and Scotland-specific polls throughout the run up to the 2017 General Election.

We’ve been featured throughout the world’s media, including Sky News, BBC News, Bloomberg, The Guardian and The Sunday Times – interestingly, our poll in Jan 2017 correctly predicted Labour would lose Glasgow City Council in local elections, which it had run since 1980!

• The Telegraph: SNP ‘to lose 10 seats’ to Tories in major blow to Nicola Sturgeon
• The Independent: Labour hits new campaign poll high as Jeremy Corbyn launches manifesto
• Reuters: May’s lead over Labour nearly halves to 8 points – Panelbase poll
• The Independent: Election polls: Theresa May’s lead over Labour almost halved to eight points. Conservatives’ share of vote falls by four percentage points in one week, according to Panelbase

Our political polling capabilities:
