I thought this was pretty interesting, specially considering this was on a right wing news website.

Here is charlie brookers hilarious response.

must say i do not agree with this study

many peoples political views get altered by things such as location , family life , life experiences e.t.c

15.000 people in a country of nearly 70 million is a tiny number,,,,,,

unfortunately now , we live in a society in uk of blind tolerance and bending over backwards to help those that do not deserve any help

I can pretty much agree with it because everybody I meet with intolerant views and prejudices tend to be far less intelligent than those who are more open minded.

Being intolerant is easy, and it take no effort to assume that kind of a view point, however middle/left wing individuals tend to think more about the particular subject and also take into consideration evidence and the humane aspect.

'The authors claim that people with low intelligence gravitate towards right-wing views because they make them feel safe.' - This is so true and surely growing up in the west you should notice this all the way through school, uni and into your working life.

The UK and the majority of the people there are so preoccupied with being politically correct that they're becoming delusional.

Dress up white people as slaves so they can walk around and say sorry to the poor black man who's so suppressed in society because of slavery all those years ago. /sarcasm

You're all being taught to be "tolerant" and "unprejudiced" so your tax money can go to funding the next 'round of asylum seekers. House and Mercedes anyone? It's on the tax payer!

people call the right wing unintelligent but it has had some of the most intelligent politicians and politically minded people in british politics......what has to be understood is that the left wing preach tolerance but they are intolerant of what they call intolerant.....its very hypocritical.......through our education system we are taught to follow the line otherwise be cast into the wilderness.......the UK is now the home of terrorism in europe and the identity of the british people is being eroded by mass immigration and complete change of the image of britain.....

also the tags left and right wing no longer exist really........each side has a mixture of both types of politics........

I completely agree with the first part of your post, however being a 'lefty' does not mean ignoring logic. Obviously there is a sever immigration problem within the UK, and I would take a similar approach to Australia on solving that.

And I know that somebody will make a Muslim comment so just to pre-empt that, no theocracy should have any special rights in any context at all, or under any circumstances.

National interest should never be compromised, however this has nothing to do with holding prejudices and intolerance.

I dont mind people coming here, whoever they are, but it needs to be of value to us.
