"We have arrested a man in his sixties from Norfolk on suspicion of misconduct in public office and are carrying out searches at addresses in Berkshire and Norfolk." is such a funny way to say 'Sandringham and Windsor Castle'

I, for one, think this polling is deathly accurate and any poll that shows “Restore” on less than 10% should be seen as negative momentum and a stuttered start
