Default Tories score highest in green intelligence test

They scored 18%
Labour came second with 12%
The Liberals go straight to the back of the class with 11.7%. In fact if you deduct points for getting a wrong answer instead of passing, like they do in the Mastermind quiz then they would have done even better than the other two.


Many Tory MPs still sceptical on climate change | Environment | guardian.co.uk

BVL,
An interesting 'poll'. I wonder if we can predict what ther likes of g hall & rjt will make of it.

Added in edit :- The linked poll seems to be more about 'dealing' with AGW, rather than MPs 'intelligence' of it.

I'm not sure which table you got your figures from tho' - table 1 seems to have a different result 'on the belief of AGW'

However, it certainly has confirmed my long held general opinion of many MPs

The Conservatives have made huge strides under David Cameron's inspirational leadership.

Seems they have successfully 'decontaminatred' themselves in readiness for taking office after the next General Election.

I used to think that.

Now I've changed my view.

You have a worrying propensity to quote fairy tales & therefore believe them.

Can anybody confirm BVL's figures and/or suggest a rational analysis of this poll ?

No currently Gordon the Moron has made the Labour party unelectable and we swing from red buggins to blue buggins
