68% support an English Parliament

The Sunday Telegraph's ICM poll was a massive boost the campaign. As the ST puts it, the figure of 68% support is an "historic high".

In the three years that I've been campaigning for the CEP, we have regulalry been quoted figures showing support at around 16%. In June, an Ipsos Mori poll in the Observer put support at 26%. But these polls were always multiple-choice- a referendum on an English Parliament would be a straight-forward "do you want an English Parliament?". Judging by the latest ICM poll, 68% would say "YES!".
