Opinion polling claim on April 30 entry - conflict with another article
Unless I am missing something, the claim "30 April – The Conservatives return to the top of the opinion polls for the first time since late 1979, with the latest MORI poll showing that they have 43% of the vote, ahead of the SDP-Liberal Alliance" completely contradicts another article. The article Opinion polling for the 1983 United Kingdom general election suggests Conservative leads earlier in 1982 and in February 1981. Also the 30 April polls recorded in the other article would seem to have Labour second to the Conservatives rather than the SPD. That article would also suggest that the Conservatives were never ahead of Labour in an opinion poll in 1979 after that year's general election. While I am not 100% sure of the polling articles reliability, I am sure I have heard it stated that the Conservatives did have slight leads in some polls in early 1982, so I think the statement here is probably wrong.

2nd January date for Deltic retirement
I wonder if it needs to be made clear in the statement here that 2nd January 1982 was when Deltics ran a final enthusiast special for BR rather than their retirement from timetabled services. The last regular service to be hauled by was on 31 December 1981, and 1981 is usually given as the date of their withdrawal being completed. Dunarc (talk) 23:42, 28 January 2022 (UTC)
