Fuck it, I'm going to risk joining the Conservatives. Hopefully I don't grow devil horns in the morning. Besides, I'm too young to be grey.  AdminSTB The way things were going with your views, it was kind of inevitable... Least I'm not a hippie. 63% Green indeed. |

Though, truth be told, I'd be more inclined to vote for them if only they got a grip on certain science & technology issues (note the lack of overlap with them in that particular category). |

Like most of these things, I wasn't terribly happy with several of the questions but it gave a reasonably plausible result, which was something like LD 78%, Lab 76%, Green 72%, Con 41%, UKIP 24%.

I ask to join the Conservatives yesterday, and today I wake up with a cold.
Coincidence?

And now, the revelation that I'm the last (regularly active) member who's part of a "Leaning" group... ... I'll stay where I am. |

I side with Labour and UKIP on immigration while on foreign policy I side with the Conservatives and Greens.

I got very similar results but in my case Lab was one point ahead of LD. Maybe we should enter into some sort of arrangement like "pairing" in the Commons. |

Thought I would give the ISideWith quiz a go.
Parties I side with:
Lab 73%
LD 71%
Green 59%
Con 48%
UKIP 37%
Yet more evidence to suggest what I've long suspected, that I'm just a milquetoast, panty-waist centre-leftist at heart...
I did find it interesting, though, that the regional breakdown of the quiz results showed very little difference between Scotland and the UK as a whole (the SNP wasn't included in the Scottish tally, but beyond that the 'big two' were roughly neck and neck in both instances).

Scots have a self-perception of themselves as being more left-wing than the English, but social attitude surveys don't really bear that out. Interestingly, Americans aren't that far from Europeans either by most measures. |

uk.isidewith.com/results/2936128671UKIP 62% Con 55% LD 41% Lab 38% for some reason no Green party listed. i like the stuff below, particularly liked this bit "St. Albans Constituency voters side mostly Conservative. You disagree with most St. Albans voters on almost all issues, especially Social and Healthcare issues. You might want to consider moving to one of these regions." - it then seems to suggest I should move to Sandridge

They could make an app that worked with your sat nav. "At the roundabout take the third exit. You are now entering the London Borough of Camden. You disagree violently with over 90% of the voters and think that 56% of them are pillocks. You may wish to drive to Enfield." |
