Nail on head, especially Miliband. He is borderline unelectable.
It is also why Boris enjoys popular support.
Turns out I'm a Green, even though I am happy with nuclear

Redbridge is not a marginal, not even close, it's like a David Cameron kicking off his election campaign in Scotland. Ed Milliband showing his ineptitude once again
Lots in common with the Scottish Nationals despite that I whole heartedly oppose Scottish independence.
Not far off 100% for conservatives. Shame I'm not a huge fan of my local MP.

Why haven't I got the green party on mine?
Funny but related.
"THE brightest children go on to vote Liberal Democrat or Green, according to a survey.
The study by Edinburgh University researchers has found that childhood intelligence is linked to voting preferences and political involvement in adulthood.
The study - which looked at voting patterns in the 2001 general election - found that those with higher IQ ratings were more likely to vote Green in an election.
The survey - including cognitive tests at ages five and ten - was followed up with a study of voting habits at 34.
Those who voted Green had an average IQ of 108.3, with Lib-Dem voters just behind at 108.2. [ed:made a mistake at last election though!]
Conservative and Labour voters were further behind - with scores of 103.7 and 103.0 respectively, while voters for Welsh nationalist Plaid Cymru scored an average of 102.5. Scottish National Party voters had an average IQ of 102.2.
Non-voters were found to have an average IQ of 99.7.
The research showed that British National Party voters had the lowest average intelligence - scoring just 98.4.

BNP voters really are stupid.
Indeed, it's well known... but always good to remind BNP supports from time to time.It is well known that the far right have the lowest IQ and that intelligence is positively correlated with social and environmental concern. Intelligence doesn't tend to correlate well to economic policy so much though.
Social-economic status is the strongest indicator of political views and IQ is moderately correlated with that
Shock horror ^^
I know liberal democrats who would have thought it !
