Policies, nor personalities

Self-loathing? That's a lefty trait too.

It is an interesting concept:

The self-loathing of the British Left is now a problem for us all – Telegraph Blogs

Alan Bennett has become an ungrateful bore - Telegraph

Huh, I don't get any LibDem at all. Weird.

My constituency - staunch Labour strong-hold - shows the Greens doing best followed by Labour/Libdem in a tie.

But, their national figures show Tory support in 5th place so I wouldn't read too much into it.

Well it's probably based on a fairly limited and biased sample, as is the case with many tests like this.

It doesn't need to be biased - many of the Green policies are probably great, it's just they're totally implausible outside some kind of idealist utopia.

Hmm got 100% ukip! Wasn't expecting that. Maybe I need to change my vote from the Conservatives.

So they are not great at all then

They are great if you live in a fictional world.

Since we don't and things have to be paid for....

Great as in "yes I'd like to live in a world like that" not "that sounds achievable". But the survey is only asking which things you like the sound of. So promising everyone a decent income while providing wonderful public services is going to be popular

The site doesn't reveal a huge deal.

I get what the site is trying to do but I struggle to believe that the proportion of people supporting Green or Labour policies is anything like what that site implies, though I remain open to being corrected on that.

Yes, and of course you can vote for something with it being non-specific as to who pays for what (or alternatively, something more specific like "the rich"), but if the incidence of its cost were to devolve on you (generally speaking), or people whom you know, it'd be interesting to see how support for various policies changes. As in, if their costs/benefits were clearer, including any opportunity/unseen costs, you will see a different picture entirely. Otherwise these things remain a wishlist.

The green policies always remind me of this :
