The responses to last week's Fun Online Polls, on a very good turnout of 152, were as follows:
How do you intend to vote in the EU Parliament elections?
BNP - 3%
Conservatives - 1%
English Democrats - 0%
Greens - 2%
Labour - 5%
Liberal Democrats - 2%
No2EU - 2%
Pirate Party - 2%
UKIP - 74%
Undecided - 3%
I won't bother voting - 6%
That pretty much speaks for itself, I would have thought!
---------------------------------
This week's Fun Online Poll is something else which has been bugging me for years.
We Brits pride ourselves on the rapid increase in the number owner occupiers during the 20th century, and it is generally accepted in this country that owner-occupation is the best form of tenure (although it appears to reduce employment levels).
The most rapid increase was between 1950 and 1990, up from 30% to 68%. UK government housing policies during the bulk of the 20th century and for most of this period were quite the opposite of what we have been doing for the last twenty years, as a result of which, owner-occupation levels have started falling again.
In economist's terms, this is easy to explain, I'm just wondering whether people have forgotten what it was that we were doing?
