Via Matthew Yglesias, who manages to say some pretty silly things in his post, I found a survey that would matter more to me had my fate been slightly different:
Who should I vote for?
Your expected outcome:
ConservativeYour actual outcome:
Labour -43 | |
Conservative -18 | |
Liberal Democrat 51 | |
UK Independence Party 14 | |
Green 32 |
You should vote: Liberal Democrat
The LibDems take a strong stand against tax cuts and a strong one in favour of public services: they would make long-term residential care for the elderly free across the UK, and scrap university tuition fees. They are in favour of a ban on smoking in public places, but would relax laws on cannabis. They propose to change vehicle taxation to be based on usage rather than ownership.

That's exactly what I thought I'd be (though I clicked the wrong box when it asked me to guess; I clicked conservative, obviously a mistake), a Liberal Democrat. But I didn't think I'd be so extremely anti-Labour, and I thought my support for the Greens would be higher.
