Which political tribe are you?

Interesting article on the BBC website, about a new way of viewing voters segmentation (as opposed to the previous "Mondeo Man" etc...).

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-26689333

Quote:
Here's how their (Populus UK) managing director Rick Nye describes the groups:

1. Comfortable Nostalgia: "They tend to be older, more traditional voters who dislike the social and cultural changes they see as altering Britain for the worse."

2. Optimistic Contentment: "Confident, comfortable & usually on higher incomes they are prudent & tolerant but think Britain is a soft touch."

3. Calm Persistence: "Often coping rather than comfortable, they hope rather than expect things to get better."

4. Hard-pressed Anxiety: "Pessimistic & insecure, these people want more help from government and resent competition for that help particularly from new-comers."

5. Long-term Despair: "Many are serial strugglers; angry & alienated they feel little or no stake in the country or that anyone stands up for them."

6. Cosmopolitan Critics: "Generally younger, more secular and urban-based, worried about growing inequality & the general direction the country is going in."


Here is the source article, and the test is at the top of the page.....

Re: Which political tribe are you?

This post being typed in 2 parts. I have bits of 2 and 3 though strongly suspect I'm a Cosmopolitan Critic....

I would be exactly right.
