British opinion polls showed Prime Minister David Cameron losing ground to his Labour opponent Ed Miliband after weeks of setbacks took their toll on a coalition government seeking to refocus on deficit cutting.

A YouGov Plc survey in the Sunday Times yesterday showed the Labour Party leader with a higher approval rating than the Conservative premier for the first time in a year. A separate poll by the same company for the Labour-linked Fabian Society research group published in the Observer showed Miliband’s opposition with an eight-point lead.
