Latest Ipsos MORI Poll

Around three quarters (73%) of British adults think gay people should be allowed to get married to each other while a quarter (24%) do not want to allow gay marriage according to a new Ipsos MORI poll for Freedom to Marry.

Generally older people are more likely to be against gay marriage while young people are more in favour:

15% of 18-34s are opposed to gay marriage while 38% of 65+ do
82% of 18-34s are in favour, compared to 59% of those aged 65+

Conservative supporters are more likely than Labour or Liberal Democrats to say gay people should have civil partnerships only (25%, 13%, 13% respectively) and are less likely to support forcing religious organisations to conduct ceremonies (18% Conservatives, 26% Labour supporters, 37% Lib Dems)

However, allowing gay marriage and not forcing religious organisations to conduct ceremonies is the most popular option among Conservatives as it is for Labour and Liberal Democrat supporters (46%, 53%, 48% respectively).

You really are one sad fucker to have that much interest! lol

I'm no mathematician, but 23.45% does not equate to a third.

Indeed you're not, but 34 out of 105 does.

Well, I could point out the enormous catastrophic error in your calculation, but will happily leave you to work out where you've gone wrong with the simple exclamation of 'Jesus'.

Enlighten me

Okay.

146 people have voted. Not 105.

To work out the % of NO votes, you would look at the number of NO votes against the TOTAL.

You are looking at the number of NO votes against the number of YES votes.

Are you serious?

Ok , i'll humour you, i should have put roughly a third, but you knew that really.
