Well when I was at Uni as well as compulsary ready of the FT (I studied Economics) my lecturer determined that from my reading the Independent that I was Lib Dem.

Mind you in my final year the head of the Labour, Conservative and Lib Dem student groups were all on my course. Made for interesting lectures. smiley - winkeye

Just had a cracking British politics Seminar- the lecturer, and one of the mature students, are in the LAbour Party, I'm a Lib Dem, my friend Caroline (who I have to do a presentaTION WITH) is a tory, and another of the mature students is a communist.

And we were discussing policies and ideologiesa of the major parties. smiley - smiley

In my second year political theory class. Our second term was originally intended to cover Marxism but due to circumstances in the world the previous few month this was cut to two weeks with another couple on transition from Communism which was spontateously covered.

Hey, Demon Drawer!
I know it's been a while since someone last popped into this thread, but I've got a link you'd really like. It's from ApparÏtÏon (U180630), and it's a link to the NZ voting system, a form of PR -> http://www.elections.org.nz/elections/esyst/govt_elect.html
Btw, there's an interesting discussion on democracy going on over at F19585?thread=230938
