yougov also repeatedly reports that x% of the UK population want COVID-19 restrictions to continue indefinitely, along with the closure of nightclubs. You'll forgive me if I don't treat yougov as the main source of UK sentiment
It's a sample of N~1700, so +/- 2% for a 95% confidence interval. The responses are weighted so self-selection along socio-demographic variables is mostly accounted for.
Sure, almost all off-the-shelf polling is rather bad these days, but they did their job as well as you can reasonably expect.
Polling has un-earned respect lately in the US. Is there any reason to suspect opinion polls are more reliable in the UK? Afaik people are just as shifted away from landlines there.
