What % did you get?

86% Labour, 82% Lib Dem, 80% Conservative, 79% SNP/Plaid Cymru, 76% Green, 57% UKIP, 32% DUP.

Centrist, basically, which is correct, but I don't side with the Tories on immigration or education at all, so don't know where it's getting that from.

93% Labour; 7% Stalinist Dictatorship.

I side with Labour on most political issues of the 2015 Election.
93% Lab, 87% Green, 85% LD, 52% Tory, agreeing on environment & education (which I really don't!) & 43% UKIP (which really offends me)

An interesting take on things. Don't agree with it all, but it does highlight issues of hypocrisy, arrogance, interference and misjudgement by all parties. (some more than others)

Your affinity with Labour too high?

 

[Mrk]

Your affinity with Labour too high?

Well, yes, that and UKIP. Both utterly illiberal.

 

[The Esk]

Left-Wing Authoritarian

Your political beliefs would be considered moderately Left-Wing Authoritarian on an ideological scale, meaning you tend to stand up and protect those who are oppressed or taken advantage of and believe the government should do the same

91% Labour

Google Jim Wells MLA and read about a real forward looking benevolent politician, then think his party could be in Government after the election.

PS I'm joking about the forward looking benevolent bit.

Resigned.

Stamp duty relief is a big help for first time buyers. Not going to deny that.

But 300k? If you can afford that you probably don't need tax relief.

For us lot in the north, £300k would be a property for the rich, but you have to bear in mind that house prices in the South are on average 3x the price they are here, so £300k isn't actually a house for the rich there, far from it.

There will be some beneficiaries, probably those who are rich in the north and can get away with paying stamp duty on a 300k property, but it's a measure which will mostly benefit your average person trying to get into the housing ladder.

Also, I don't think Labour are uncomfortable with people getting rich. It's a misconception. They simply want to redress the balance a bit more than the Tories.
