Fun Online Polls: Indian Bicycle Marketing & the 2014 EU Parliament election

The responses to last week's Fun Online Poll were as follows:

Which party has NOT been criticised by the others for its suggestion to means-test the pensioners' Winter Fuel Allowance?

Lib Dems - 4%
Labour - 7%
Tories - 0%
They've all suggested it and they've all been criticised by the others for it - 89%


89% of respondents were correct.

Amazingly, the Tories were not just criticised by the other parties, they managed a flip-flop-flip. First IDS tentatively suggested it, he was shouted down by Cam and famously signed off a grovelling apology in The Pensioner Daily Express, and then Georgon Osbrown announced a few months later that something along these lines would be in the next Budget. That's not just Indian Bicycle Marketing, that's like having two warring departments in the same advertising agency organise the partition of India in 1947.
