European Parliament Sets out its Vision

[original PM]

From the second page

In the context of the renewed debate on the future of Europe, 47% of European citizens feel that their voice counts in the EU

So that means 53% - e.g. the majority do not feel the EU represents them

It just gets better the more you read.

An increase of eight percentage points now means 33% of all citizens have a positive image of the European Parliament.

So that would be 66% who do not then?

The vast majority really?

You’ve deliberately missed the 42% neutral. Did that not fit your narrative?

For context and comparison, what are the percentage of U.K. citizens that have a positive image of the U.K. Parliament?

Does us a favour oPM, work out the %'s for those in the UK that support Brexit, compared to those that don't (to keep the data comparative, you count 17.4m in support and all the others in the UK as not in support).

You see, anyone can play with numbers to support a narrative. Seems there are more people in the EU that positively support the EU than there are in the UK that positively support Brexit.

But for it to be a true comparison, you would only count those who actually respond to the question, i.e. those that voted....
(Nice try though)

Even the EU didn't try and count all the citizens, who didn't respond to their questions...

No, but they counted all the ones who did respond.

Just cause you live in a binary world doesn't mean the rest of us do.

If only they could be arsed to get out of bed and vote.

An increase of eight percentage points now means 33% of all citizens have a positive image of the European Parliament. This increase is coupled with a similar decrease of 7 percentage points to a total of 21% of citizens who have a negative image of the EP, while 42% of those surveyed still have a neutral image.

21% said no. That's not the same as 66% saying no.

21% said no. That's not the same as 66% saying no.

I agree.

Whorty however, was proposing something just as wrong.
