Social Status

What’s more British than being obsessed with class? Being embarrassed about it of course.

This reticence doesn’t apply to political parties. For example, the Liberal Democrats have purchase demographic data from CACI to which uses ‘everything from consumer habits to disposable income’ to try and guess more about your background.

Some political parties even try to guess your favourite newspaper to work out if you will vote for them.

If you vote in the UK, the chances are these calculations are held on your record with each party. Who do they think you are?
