                            CHAIRMAN'S AGM STATEMENT



At today's Annual General Meeting of YouGov plc the Chairman, Peter Kellner,
will make the following statement:



'The current year has started well with the core omnibus and bespoke businesses
in the UK trading in line with our expectations. In October 2005, we
strengthened our offering with the launch of our new subscription based brand
tracker, BrandIndex, and to date we have had an encouraging response from major
blue chip companies. '



'The Middle East operations came under our control in September 2005 and have
performed strongly. In that time, we have won some significant new contracts.



'As a result of these developments, the board expects the Group to perform
materially ahead of market expectations for the current financial year.



'YouGov's record of accuracy was extended to 10 out of 10 in the UK with the
correct prediction of the outcome of the Tory leadership race on 6 December; our
average error rate remains just 1%.'
