One can have spiritual beliefs and yet remain secular depending of the job one is doing. Whereas agnosticism is a belief that the question is unanswerable/unknowable so it makes no sense to speculate.
Having no religion merely indicates there is no particular one, that one wishes to subscribe to/join. This maybe because one feels they all have faults, all the way across the spectrum to having never bothered to think about it.

For a start I said you not me! I also said "a God" with no reference to any particular God. There are many people out there that belie in "a God" but no actual prescribed God, they just believe in a superior God somewhere in the heavens or were ever!

I'm deeply sceptical of polls that try and distill complex subjects into 'yes' and 'no' answers. Most people are more nuanced than that but when pushed make the binary distinction.
Also, this is from the Guardian. A newspaper that, to be blunt, has all the credibility of the below average intelligence of the local village idiot.
