Dated, but interesting. Look at the dates here, for example:

The collapse is long before Corbyn was leader, and in one case, results improved while he was in power.

How about some more recent reports, though.

Labour trails, but marginally. With the SNP in the position it is in, that's not an "unelectable" Labour.

Yes, Cameron took a big hit with the Panama papers, and he and Osborne are percieved as part or the financial elite. The gains on opinion still leave labour a long way behind, though I'll admit they are gains. I'm still sticking with the PLP, who represent voters, and a broader section of society.
