DESCRIPTION
New polling from Ipsos MORI shows Ed Miliband is still to convince the public of his own qualities, despite presiding over the most popular party. Just three in ten (31%) of Britons say they like Mr Miliband - effectively level with Nick Clegg on 33% and Nigel Farage on 32% - but 63% say they dislike him. David Cameron stands out as the most popular of the leaders, with just under half (48%) liking him.
