Shock horror, I support the Lib Dems

I’ve not done one of these political quiz things for a while. This one is from Who Should You Vote For?

As suspected, I came out pretty strongly in favour of the Liberal Democrats.

Who Should You Vote For?

Who should I vote for?

Your expected outcome:

Liberal Democrat

Your actual outcome:

Labour 2
Conservative -18
Liberal Democrat 25
UK Independence Party -16
Green -5

You should vote: Liberal Democrat

The LibDems take a strong stand against tax cuts and a strong one in favour of public services: they would make long-term residential care for the elderly free across the UK, and scrap university tuition fees. They are in favour of a ban on smoking in public places, but would relax laws on cannabis. They propose to change vehicle taxation to be based on usage rather than ownership.

Take the test at Who Should You Vote For

Via Murky.org.

Update: I did say I came out pretty strongly in favour of the Lib Dems, but I see Nick Barlow’s chart is much more extreme!

    This is the advert Google gave me when I’d finished! Should I be worried…?
