In England (and Scotland?) it is de rigueur for such people to 'take' the Telegraph to impress their bosses.James Colemannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-930120922627919768.post-90585852522461004102015-06-08T12:45:35.185+01:002015-06-08T12:45:35.185+01:00Probably women Mail readers since they (like my wi...Probably women Mail readers since they (like my wife who is a strong SNP supporter) buy the Mail for its girlie stuff and don't read its political chaff.

However, although the circulation in Scotland is not much, only 16,000, I think that might still be proportionally higher than the demographic I've just described. So *some* Scots must be buying it...Craig Pnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-930120922627919768.post-16860323602379702212015-06-07T08:27:19.622+01:002015-06-07T08:27:19.622+01:00Eleven years ago, the Broken Record had a recorded...Eleven years ago, the Broken Record had a recorded 61% of it's readership identified as Labour supporting, according to the 2004 Ipsos Mori poll of readers voting intentions in Westminster elections.<br /><br />http://web.archive.org/web/20071213203908/http://www.ipsos-mori.com/polls/2004/voting-by-readership.shtml<br /><br />Rather ironically, 22% of readers were recorded as being inclined to vote SNP.<br /><br />In 2010, Ipsos Mori carried out the same survey but altered the SNP to the obfuscatory 'others'. It showed that SNP/Other voter intentions in the run up to the General Election dropped from 22% to 17%, chiming with the unprecedented level of anti SNP stories between 2007 and 2010, when the SNP formed their first minority government.<br /><br />Ipsos Mori do these polls on a five year turnaround, I suspect that after the near wipe out of Labour last month in Scotland, support among those readers who remain loyal to the Record, will have risen considerably in their support for the SNP.
