General / Off-Topic According to Yougov...

According to yougov (lol). Elite fans are more right wing than Hitler! (and also like American Football, cats, and VWs).

Should we be worried?

It really is quite amazing.

I wonder how many here would include themselves in any of that?

Just noticed the number questioned is 79.

There are only 79 participants so there is going to be some discrepancy! ;P

Yep. Sample size does not confer any statistical significance.

I don't fit the demographic as it is currently portrayed - perhaps when the sample increases.... who knows.

I added that without noticing you had already done so. Sorry.

Though I tend to think the descrepency is somewhat larger. I wonder how they came to their conclusions. Does anyone say they are right wing these days? Does anyone answer such a question at all? If not it has to be a determination.

And are there actually 79 Elite players with more than £1000 a month spare?

And a Voltswagon?

And reads the Daily Telegraph. Now I'm insulted!

Since the sample size is quite small, maybe we can influence it and do something silly with the results

This will be the same lot that predicted a hung parliament?

Makes sense. People who vote to right are often more violent. Ed is not a game of Care Bears

Whatever. I'm still utterly peeved at the suggestion I read the Telegraph!
