I'm just curious where the average political standpoint is on the board. It'll probably come out somewhere in the middle but hey ho lets have a go.

Looks like as a messageboard we are just left of centre.

Which probably makes us a pretty fair representation of the British voting public.

Or do you disagree Mr I?

A bit early to make assumptions Mr B- even this morning as I type this there are only 24 votes cast!

Second point you make? No, I wouldn't say so. But I guess that's a whole new thread. :wink:

Third point, I'm not Mr I so I won't answer, save to say that I am younger and more handsome than the old fella you were asking the questions of. :laugh:

I think it is a fair representation of Hartlepool people, but not of the country as a whole. It might be a generalisation but the further south you go then the further right you go and sadly this will probably be reflected in next years election.

I know you're joking but others might be serious so here we go in a general way.
Far left - Communist / Marxist
Left - traditional Labour
Centre - 'New' Labour / Liberals
Right - Conservative
Far right - BNP

We seem to have moved, as a messageboard community, slightely more to the left since this poll, a little over a year ago.

It's probably just that Mr I hasn't cast his vote yet!

Somewhere in between Left and Centre, more nearer to Centre.
