‘If you drill down into raw numbers from all polling that you can get your hands on from the last two weeks of the campaign,’ a Corbyn aide said, ‘it broadly shows the same thing: Labour one to three points ahead. Then they apply what you think is going to happen. We had a heavy scepticism of politically accepted wisdom. That’s different from saying “The polls don’t know anything.” It’s the way in which they’re interpreted which is wrong.’
