Election 2015: How Close Are You To The Political Centre?

Snap!! – You missed the point, Snafu!!:rolleyes::stupid:

As I said…

…shame on the BBC for hosting such a biased survey.

I agree…..nothing like reading what you want to read! :rolleyes:

Well, I scored 19/25…..just to right of Genghis Khan apparently! :rolleyes:

But what an utterly skewed set of questions; all rich-versus-poor, management-against-workers, us-and-them, big-business-against-the-common-man, one-law-for-rich-and-one-for-the-poor! Were these questions set by a union shop-steward…..in 1972?

No questions about immigration I notice!

I don’t say this very often but shame on the BBC for hosting such a biased survey.

I quite agree, as I suggested in earlier posts, but was unsurprised.

Sorry to burst your bubbles chaps but it isn’t a bad old BBC “poll.”

“But according to new research, based on the British Social Attitudes survey, the centre ground is always moving.”

“The results don’t imply you should vote for any particular party – instead they reflect where you stand on economic issues compared to the rest of the British population, as surveyed by NatCen Social Research.”

All the questions do is illustrate where your responses put you today in relation to other people answering the same set of questions.

Nothing like reading what you want to read eh Charlie and CD!

I did a really detailed one a few weeks ago, which put me some way to the left of the current Labour party!

As you say, lets wait for May 7.

So all of that is as clear as mud! I’ll stick to May 7th…..

I scored 15/25.

Apparently ‘Around a fifth of the population have similar views to you. You would have been close to the centre of the political spectrum from 2004-2007 and in 2010’.

No, its an odd one – according to that, I am right of centre, which is no surprise, but if it had been 2010, I would have been bang in the centre!

A movable feast?

There are so many caveats to each of these simplistic questions as there are to most of these “poll” questions as to make the result meaningless and I am not sure what they achieve….roll on May 7th, the only poll which matters.

12/25
