On the road between here and Aberystwyth there used to be a roadside stall selling lucky gnomes. During one election campaign, the owner had put up a sign that read, "Our lucky gnomes say vote ........."[1]
As there's a by-election in East Yorkshire due to David Davis's resignation and the people of Ireland have just said "No" to Europe in the referendum, I wondered what people thought would be the likely voting tendencies of lucky gnomes? These of course were British gnomes, Welsh gnomes even.
Lucky gnomes would vote for which political party?
Conservatives
0(0.0%)
Labour
0(0.0%)
Liberal Democrat
0(0.0%)
Plaid Cymru/Party of Wales
1(6.2%)
Official Monster Raving Loony Party
3(18.8%)
UKIP
0(0.0%)
Respect Coalition
0(0.0%)
Green
5(31.2%)
British National Party (BNP)
0(0.0%)
Other (I'll specify in comments)
1(6.2%)
Oooo! Ticky box!
2(12.5%)
[1] I'll reveal how these particular gnomes actually voted[2] later. :)
[2] Well, of course they didn't actually vote, but how they would have voted if they could.
