Sorry but that isn't any clearer?
Please show how this is possible or practical for a nurse to achieve.
The link suggests it's not as clear cut for education, as it may be a factor of age as well, hence not commenting on that.

nope... you're still not making things any clearer?
So that accounts for some of the 18-19 year old age group, what about the rest of the age groups?

Even as a gay person I think the Tim farron thing was blown way out of proportion ... And the gays I knew didn't see it as an issue.
He's entitled to his beliefs .... And he still had a good track record on his voting on equality. I'd only question his religion if it interfered with his duties on voting for equality laws. I think he did well to keep it separate.
Edit: just read he abstained on same sex marriage ...
Welp, that's no solace for a liberal party now is it, let alone the leader of it.
Some of those currently major players in Labour (John McDonnell for instance) have articulated desires for significant shake up of council tax and inheritance tax which their manifesto strongly suggests they would implement and expand on which would "soak up" riches from even those moderately well off to subsidise those perennially going nowhere. While the full implication was scaled back in their most recent revision of the manifesto it would be naive to think if given a chance they wouldn't push towards that.
Beneath a veneer of reasonable sounding premises their manifesto has some significant stings in the tail.
That's going to be largely covered by the socioeconomic grade.
Which shows marginally more popularity for labour in the C2DE category. That said you could argue more of the labour vote/social democrat vote was taken up by the Lib Dems in the ABC1 group, hence no change in conservative popularity overall.
no, it is going to be covered by income:
also interesting to see the increase in Lib Dem voters as education level increases
(though I think age is likely a confounder in both cases)
I can't interpret Farron's resignation in any other way than he feels so strongly against gay sex due to his strongly held beliefs that he felt hypocritical in not opposing gay marriage and gay relations in this country.
In which case I'm glad he's stepping down, good riddance if he felt like his own internal struggles with other people's business were stopping him doing a public service. I was just starting to think he was becoming a decent leader, but interested to see who else will step forward now.

How are Labour 27% or below in all categories when they polled 40% of the vote overall?
Data is a bit old - this is from April... back when more people supported the Tories anyway.
Might be better to reference actual voter survey data then, rather than opinion poll data:

After all, it's believing those opinion polls that got the Tories into the mess of calling a snap election in the first place.
they don't seem to have a breakdown by income though...
though do you really thing that people didn't change their minds through that disastrous campaign? looking back Yougov seemed to be on point re: their reports of the gap narrowing up until they almost predicted the result but then bottled it at the last moment and give the tories a bigger lead

That would help too. It would be interesting to see if/how much they have changed - they're intentions not how people voted, which I guess explains such low labour support in both charts.
