    I suspect that you look at my posts and think that I am defending YouGov’s accuracy. I am not.

    I am pointing out that your assertion of how people voted is equally, if not more, invalid.

    I’m calling you a moron not because you are challenging the accuracy of YouGov, but for your flawed methodology in what you claim to be the “real” situation and your inability to recognise it even when it is pointed out to you.

    Unfortunately it is all beyond me, so I have to categorise it as lies.
    Are you looking for us to feel sorry for you?

    This is an established CUK fact.

    Voters mean people who vote. That is what you were talking about, whereas the chart was referencing party members. Looking at your post...

    Something not quite right with these graphs. perhaps the sample was only taken inside the M25.

    What I take from these graphs is that the labour vote migrated to the Lib dems and Greens ( Remain) whilst the conservative vote migrated to Brexit (Leave). However, in the labour heartlands of the North of England, there was a significant vote away from Labour towards the brexit Party which is why the brexit party came top in virtually every constituency. So what we have here is another southern poll all about the South East of England.
    ...you clearly have misunderstood. You are trying to use the Euro Election results to discredit a poll about party members, who are a very small proportion of Euro Election voters.

    I guess you still don't get it so let's leave it there.

    The plural of “anecdote” is not “data”.
    What we do know is that Yorkie is in a strong position to retain his Cretin of the Year dunce's hat.
