This document discusses declining trust in and attachment to political parties and institutions in the UK. It finds that younger generations feel less connected to political parties than older generations. Trust in politicians has declined long-term. Support for third parties like UKIP and the Greens is rising as the dominance of Labour and the Conservatives falls. The public is increasingly divided on issues like the structure of government and the welfare state. The document concludes that the 2015 UK general election may see no party winning an outright majority due to these trends in public opinion.

Evaluating the Cost-effectiveness of a Mobile Decision Support Tool in MalawiHFG Project
Mobile applications are promising tools for strengthening service quality and have been an area of considerable mHealth innovation. Despite growing demand for data to guide policymakers, donors, and program managers in making sound investments, there is a paucity of evidence on the cost-effectiveness of mHealth technologies. To address this gap, the HFG Project analyzed a mobile decision support tool with the following objectives: First, it aimed to provide a transparent and detailed methodology for categorizing the costs of building, deploying, and scaling-up mobile decision support tools in Malawi. Second, it evaluated the incremental cost-effectiveness of a mobile tool’s use in improving clinical care. Finally, the evaluation addressed challenges faced in conducting cost-effectiveness analyses of mHealth interventions when they are scaled up and become multifunctional.

In a unique survey, Ipsos MORI will be interviewing a longitudinal panel of respondents on their attitudes to immigration throughout and after the election campaign.
This will provide a much more detailed understanding of how and why views change.
For the first wave we have also interviewed an unusually large sample of the public (over 4,500), which allows us to look at smaller sub-groups, including followers of all key parties and those who have switched parties since the last election.
The January 2019 Ipsos MORI Issues Index confirms that Brexit remains the biggest issue facing Britain for a majority of the public. Sixty-three per cent name it as a worry – while this is a small drop from December (67%) it remains an historically high level of concern about this issue.
The Beat is an Ipsos always on community of engaged consumers, representative of the UK population, for rapid understanding of consumer views. In this edition, we explore people’s views on the Brexit vote 5 years on, and how they feel about the vote they made.

Since the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, women of all ages across Britain are more pessimistic and worried than their male counterparts. This new webinar explores why.
Looking at data around the balance of responsibility and mental load at work and at home for women compared to men, the additional stresses that the pandemic has put on women of all ages, and the specific damages it has made to women's work-life balances and future ability to progress in a career, our expert speakers will examine how the disease - despite being more prevalent in men - might be more damaging to women.
Ipsos has analysed data from more than 2,000 women of working age across Britain to examine what is happening, explore the causes and explain what can be done to better support those women being hit hardest by the pandemic.

The general election, which is the focus of our deep dive this month, as well as the London Bridge terror attack - both contributed to sizeable shifts in social conversation.
Following the ITV Leaders Debate, there was a sharp increase in conversation around the general election. The release of the Labour and Conservative manifestos seeing further spikes in volume towards the end of November.

In a May 9, 2024 paper, Juri Opitz from the University of Zurich, along with Shira Wein and Nathan Schneider form Georgetown University, discussed the importance of linguistic expertise in natural language processing (NLP) in an era dominated by large language models (LLMs).
The authors explained that while machine translation (MT) previously relied heavily on linguists, the landscape has shifted. “Linguistics is no longer front and center in the way we build NLP systems,” they said.
