    Most surprising thing on my result was that I agree more with the SNP than the Tories...though not a lot with either ;-)

    Labour 66
    Liberal Democrat 22
    Green 10
    UK Independence -59
    Conservative - 68

    Very accurate results. Here's a dictionaryfor Lib Dem supporters. ;-)

    I tried a similar test on the Telegraph site and my views were aligned with UKIP closely followed by the BNP both of which I haven't voted for.

    So what this shows is that some people have no idea why they vote for the party they do ...

    that's rather cheeky curious, wonder what you mean by that.

    I'll be voting lib dem at this election and decided to look up some words which were, Labour, promise, failure, lack, mandate, boom, bust, regulation, banks, lack (again), promises and broken. ;)

    The Telegraph system seems well designed but in practice questions I felt the questions are leading (in an obvious direction!). They had me weighted as follows (whoshould numbers in brackets)
    Labour 69 (34)
    Tory 53 (-36)
    Green Party 42 (34)
    LibDem 39 (26)

    A massive swing for the Tories on that one - quel surprise!
    I suspect the questions have been picked with the objective of telling people to vote for their party not the LibDems.

    Mine was as expected although Lib Dems surprisingly close second.

    Very close Labour, Lib Dem, Green and miles away from Conservatives and UKIP. Not very surprising that!

    Apparently I'm Lib Dem - Green - Labour.

    I'll be voting Labour here, though. Mainly because of this:

    The threshold for inheritance tax should be increased from £325,000 to £1,000,000 funded by spending cuts or other tax rises.

    UGH!

    Very unexpected seems quite a few of us are giving the greens their only vote according to this survey.

    I wont be voting for the greens though.

    They're ahead in the Brighton Kemptown area. Could have their first MP.

    Very good. It came out as I would expect. If you tell the truth, then I think it gives you the correct answer.

    Come on you ..................

    Lib Dem apparently although as I live in the Eltham seat it would be a wasted vote, whereas just down the road in Lewisham East it would actually count for something.

    How about a Newshopper campaign for multi-seat constituencies ?!
