YouGov Poll shows what parliament would look like if only women could vote

I see your scepticism but in all honesty this tracks with my personal experience on the ground speaking to people I know in real life. The Green Party are hugely popular in the circles I run with, even amongst the men. Though having said that I live and work among very respectful feminist ally men that know what is expected of them, I imagine that would be a whole different story in communities like the working class.

So your title says "women" but your data says "a specific handpicked 53% of women"
Says a lot more about you than about "women".

I’m 53 and biologically female do I not get a vote?

I feel the same as you. It makes me happy to know that the far right rhetoric online isn’t the view of the majority.

@InstantlyBella when you saw that image, did it not bother you at all that there was no reference to the source of data and no explanation of the methodology that was used to generate it? You’re just happy to take things as shown without any checks as to accuracy, bias, etc?

I accidentally disenfranchised myself by being in hospital. I’m 66 so just as well really. Who wants to know what this old hag thinks.

I saw that infograph during the local elections debacle and I found it heartening that so many women have the courage of conviction to vote for the only political party that wants to make this country better for everyone.

Of course like in all things, men have to go ruin it by voting Reform in their droves. Clearly they need some more lessons in toxic masculinity because it's not sinking in just yet.

But yes, it is pleasing to know that women are absolutely on the ball when it comes to the environment, trans rights, being a sanctuary for refugees fleeing oppression around the world and taxing the wealthy class who hoard their money like Smaug.

Surely there are a few Toms.

Yes, I imagine most people think the Green party is about environmentalism, not about wanting to pump children full of harmful pharmaceuticals.

For women’s opinions are about something, look at surveys of women about it.

Women voting for a political party may or may not agree with that party’s policy on a specific issue.

No taxation without representation!

No, I'm not suggesting that. I'm suggesting exactly what I wrote.

So - you’re suggesting here you don’t appreciate the Left’s anti-racism views, and would rather run with the Right’s racist agenda as it fits better with you? (And we do know that people of all cultures and ethnicities can be racist towards others - no shock there.)

It’s very odd too that you seem to think there is no individualism in the Left. I would think the exact opposite.

I’ve seen it elsewhere so imagine it’s going around Bluesky etc.

The Greens are highly pro “trans rights”

Environmentally friendly. Lucky they no longer care about the environment really 😂

Thank you

I found it on X and there's no community note

Bizarre

I'm not running a polling company, but I would be really surprised if that was accurate. And worried. And that's got nothing to do with gender issues!

I’m a woman over 50. If I don’t get a say in our elected bodies, can I stop having to pay for them please?

I’ve often voted Green despite their gender nonsense because I care about the environment.

I won’t anymore because they’ve gone so far on the gender crap and they are apparently synonymous with gender ideology not green issues.

Posters usually post a direct link to the YouGov website when they post a diagram like this. It would be useful to have the link OP.

@EmeraldRoulette I doubt that YouGov have produced that image. It’s probably been generated from YouGov original data that’s been cherry picked or otherwise manipulated to produce the required outcome. Hence the total lack of proper reference or notes about how the results were produced.

I saw this somewhere else and I wondered where on earth it had come from

I know YouGov are a bit crap but seriously, what is this? Do they put stuff out to generate discussion?

Wasn't it them who said that the majority of the public were in favour of the Garden Bridge project when in fact people didn't really know how it was going to work or what the full proposal was, with the interruption of views and so on?

It may not have been - I looked at a lot of material because I campaigned against it.

I am sure that people voting Green are not voting on trans issues. Unless trans people are green ....

Or that self-reported voting intentions don't always materialise into actual votes in exactly those numbers (see the 'shy Tory' effect).

ETA - an additional thought in response to HenriettaSwanLeavitt's post.
