Guido has written this up as “Not a single Labour PPC thinks the deficit is important”. But lets note two things, as Ben Bradshaw has pointed out:

So it was a small sample size, candidates were only able to choose three issues, and the majority of Labour candidates chose “the economy” which includes the deficit.

But lets look at that same graph for what Tory PPCs think – because it’d be just as easy to say:

Because not a single Tory PPC who was polled by Ipsos-Mori picked any of them.
