          Close enough. Did it with my other half who is the most laid back nicey nice type and she got 75%! It's only because she doesn't know anything about the BBC and shes vegetarian that put her under 80%. She thought it was utter stupidity when I told her she was 75% far right.

              Hilarious - particularly in light of who runs the BBC. Not many centrists or left wingers controlling it.

                I don't think there was ever a questionnaire. "The Upper Lip" is a satire site (similar to the Daily Mash or the Onion):

                Snopes also looked into this, and couldn't find any other source:
                Did the BBC Institute a ‘Far Right Questionnaire’ for New Recruits? | Snopes.com

                  Had to be a satire. Even Kier Starmer would fail a lot of those questions. Still, not untrue that the BBC is rather biased. People get called "far right" for perfectly sensible views.
