I mean this website. I did it years ago & did it again just now and um... well, kind of amusing results. Just wondered if others got what they expected or instead surprised.

I am changing my mind every day Kempeki. I also worry that the surveys I fill in might be fixed to make me do that.

Kampeki · 08/04/2015 10:05

To those who have been surprised by their results, can I ask if this might change your voting intentions?

Moreisnnogedag · 08/04/2015 03:29

Labour (40%) surprisingly and 30% UKIP which will never happen.

Kampeki · 08/04/2015 02:54

71% Labour, 29% Lib Dem. Pretty much as I expected.

I live in a Labour-Tory marginal, with a relatively high profile Tory incumbent. It was interesting to see that the responses in my constituency were heavily in favour of Labour.

Bah. Spent about 30 mins filling it out and then it told me I had timed out (said I had spent more than 48 hours completing it!) I am in the most marginal of marginal seats. My vote really counts. It looked like a good survey but not sure I have the will to do it again...

bananaramadramallama · 04/04/2015 14:57

40% Conservative
30% Lib Dem
20% UKIP
10% Labour

Immigration was the only thing I agreed with Labour on; Education & Environment was UKIP.

I'm not really surprised by the result - I quite liked how the co-alition worked wrt the necessary cuts etc being made, but being tempered due to to the Lib Dem involvement.

mizu · 03/04/2015 21:36

75% green

25% libdem.

RatOnnaStick · 03/04/2015 18:10

50% Green
25% Labour
25% Lib. Dem.

Its all a wasted vote here. Consistently safe Tory seat with a high likelihood of UKIP getting close this time. My vote will be unhelpful I suspect.

MoreCrackThanHarlem · 03/04/2015 17:48

60%Labour
40%Green

Unfortunately Green is a wasted vote in my constituency.

GraysAnalogy · 03/04/2015 17:42

66.7 Labour
33.3 UKIP

rambunctious · 03/04/2015 17:37

50% conservative
25% labour
25% Lib dem.

About right, I guess.

Butteredparsnips · 03/04/2015 17:28

Really interesting, and my results were more mixed than I had expected. Like Rufus I'm UKIP for education. But that won't be happening here either.

The real disappointment though is how the incumbent MP is our constituency who has a huge majority, has voted almost exactly counter to what I would choose. Hmm

SirChenjin · 03/04/2015 17:23

Yes, your bad Smile

ItsAllGoingToBeFine · 03/04/2015 17:23

No need to take it upon yourself to explain to me, I understand exactly what the structure is Fine.

Good Smile As I said it is a common misconception misconception, and I misunderstood your post where you used Labour and Scottish Labour separately
Going back and re-reading you say that their policies are the same so my bad...

BuzzardBird · 03/04/2015 17:12

I am, to my surprise about a third of each party if you ignore Lib. Was quite shocked by the 30% UKIP but it wasn't on immigration so I'm happy with that.
My highest was Labour and I really didn't know which way to go this time so that is a little help.

ItsAllGoingToBeFine · 03/04/2015 17:07

ItsAllGoingToBeFine - I'm not getting into another Scottish politics argument with you

That's OK. I wasn't arguing, it is a very common misconception that Scottish Labour is separate in, for example, the same way the Scottish Greens are a different party to the Greens.

FoxyVeganJane · 03/04/2015 16:56

20% snp - for democracy
80% scottish green - education, economy, environment and health.

I was suprised by the results, still unsure how I'm voting.

whattheseithakasmean · 03/04/2015 16:44

That was so interesting -

50% Labour
50% Green

I planned to vote Labour, but interesting to learn I am also in tune with the Greens.

Sadly it looks like SNP will win in my constituency Sad.

i always get green but i wont vote green until we have pr

ItsAllGoingToBeFine · 03/04/2015 16:19

80% Labour (having just joined Scottish Labour I'm glad to see it!)

Just a wee point. There is no such thing as "Scottish Labour". There is just UK labour. "Scottish Labour" is the name of the accounting unit, but it is run from London, not Scotland. Jim Murphy can't keep any of his promises without Milliband agreeing.

Takver · 03/04/2015 16:12

Boringly predictable: closest match with Plaid, next closest Labour and Green. I'll be voting Labour as we're in a lab/cons marginal, and I'd do (almost) anything to get our current MP out!

I'd be very happy with a Labour government pulled leftwards by the SNP and Plaid. Doubt it'll happen, though :(

SirChenjin · 03/04/2015 16:10

80% Labour (having just joined Scottish Labour I'm glad to see it!)
20% UKIP Confused

Zero for SNP (which I rejected constantly throughout) or the rest of the parties.
