I'll be honest here, I've no particular problem with any polling organisations or the useful functions they perform.
However, I'm sure this all seems fun and innocent to recent generations used to being profiled and farmed for information, but I personally find it creepy - the worst kind of reductive, simplistic, dehumanising rubbish.
If that offends or seems over the top, just think about it, who is putting this information together (whether it is voluntarily given or not) for whom and what that means, not in a tin-foil hat wearing conspiracy way. And no, I'm not on Facebook.

I still remember that Waitrose bag you carried your gear down to Winspit in

Haha! Well I would've got Jeeves to carry it but I was scared the balsamic vinegar and Cotswold cloudy cider would spoil. Perish the thought.

I certainly remain happy to blame Twoist for the waitrose bag and I have no problem backing up Fujee if he takes the same stance ;D

Saw this in the Telegraph (I think) the other day, apparently you're more likely to eat sweetcorn if you're right wing.
The usefulness of this astounds me.

I was thinking about it, and I thought my bag was a Sainsburys one. But you'll need to get Twoist's confirmation, we can't pass the posh around lightly

May have been me with Waitrose bags though they were in my rucksack with my beer in them. I have my reasons for shopping there but I'll move up a few places in the queue to be first against the wall anyway
