Maybe you're missing something, Mikey.

[mikey4444]

Maybe you are Naomi !

[BlackadderV]

Far from missing something, I think he's finally twigged.

[ladybirder]

Bit early to draw any conclusions yet isn't it? Only 60 votes cast and three hours old.

[DTCwordfan]

Oops, Mikey Milliband is in trouble, they will be baying for his head!

[naomi24]

Never mind, Mikey. :o)

[Psybbo]

Should this be in politics?

[BlackadderV]

I am not part of the spelling police but can I point out that there is only one L in Miliband and two in millipede. Let us at least have the courtesy to spell his name correctly before assassination☺

[2sp_]

lol @ sibs!

[Zacs-Master]

Very interesting so far!

[DTCwordfan]

Blackadder. It should be two 'l's - that's part of his image problem.....!

[ChillDoubt]

If you add the Tory, UKIP and BNP supporters on here together, the total come to 61.4 %, nearly two thirds !
--------------------
Don't panic mikey, nobody wants to be lumped with the one moron who's voted BNP thus far so we'll just stick with the 58.95%.
Still plenty enough to give you nightmares though.

[Zacs-Master]

Would 37% for the cons be enough for a majority?

[sp1814]

The votes thus far seem to suggest that 59% of the AB News section leans to the right, looking a the combined Conservative/UKIP votes.

One wonders then, why we so frequently hear that the News section is predominantly 'lefty/liberal'.

A conundrum...

[sp1814]

Damn...if I'd have voted for the Monster Raving Loony Party, at this point we could say that they're twice as popular than the BNP.

[Slapshot]

I'd be keen to know what the split is in Scotland among the Scottish AB users....

[Zacs-Master]

Possibly because not all the people who've voted frequent the news section? Just a thought.

// One wonders then, why we so frequently hear that the News section is predominantly 'lefty/liberal'. //

The news section is like the BBC. All the right wingers thinks it's far too left wing, and all the lefties think it's far too right wing.

[Gromit]

The result of the poll:

The AB news section is two thirds right wingers and a third left.

From that we can deduce, it is predominantly populated by pensioners who have nothing better to do after they have completed the Daily Mail crossword.

No one twll the advertisers.

[Prudie]

Can we therefore not also deduce that once people have the benefit of experience behind them they tend to the right?
