I'm guessing EC, and to some extent I'm using the 3% who told pollsters they were voting labour in 1992 but clearly voted Tory when they knew that no one was checking up on them.

Justifying the pursuit of selfishness has long been one of the most challenging academic problems posed to right wing philosophers. What they try and do is deflect, rebrand, or decieve, so that greed is called ambition. In 1992 people knew that there was something unedifying about the Tories, but they associated them with sell offs and tax cuts. Therefore they indicated left and turned right.

I wouldn't be shocked if a bit of this is going on with people wanting to be seen to be could anti-English, anti-Tory Scots, full of sound and fury, but who will then do something slightly different on judgement day. I doubt we're looking at 25/75 though. If you really believe that, you can probably get 100/1 with someone

I think 45/55 is more likely, but as I said, I'm guessing

[QUOTE="Warbler, post: 2469908, member: 65228"] I'm guessing EC, and to some extent I'm using the 3% who told pollsters they were voting labour in 1992 but clearly voted Tory when they knew that no one was checking up on them. Justifying the pursuit of selfishness has long been one of the most challenging academic problems posed to right wing philosophers.
