General Election 2019: Opinion polls over the last seven days

There are only six days left until we go to the polls

All must have prizes! The Turner Prize judges certainly think so. The panel have caused joy, anger and some superb chin-stroking in the art world after deciding all four of the nominees were winners – a bold statement about “solidarity” and “social poetics” (whatever the hell that is). Unless the polls start moving quickly in Labour’s favour, Jeremy Corbyn may be forced to decide something similar on 13 December. What does “winning” really mean anyway, you know guys? Maybe a hung parliament could be a bold statement about “solidarity” and “social poetics”, yeah? Boris Johnson believes it’s the winning that counts: he wants a workable majority to get his Brexit deal passed. But the creatives at CCHQ are agonising about what kind of majority might constitute “workable”. I’m Adam Forrest, and welcome to The Independent’s daily Inside Politics briefing.
