‘The Failed Estate’ has been going now for eight months. So we thought it was time we found out a bit more about our readership. Please help us by answering the five questions on the right-hand side of this post.
We are asking you about your native political affiliation and your views on a carbon price, boat people, economic management and your media habits. This is truly scientific polling, as you will see.
We plan to use your answers to these questions so we can give you the news that you truly want. That, of course, means omitting key facts, pursuing an ideological agenda, calling for free markets while standing up for rent seekers, seeking leftist conspiracies by bearded academics on government grants and pursuing unnamed ‘elites’ whose interests are strangely contrary to those of our advertisers. Other than that, it’s pretty straight.
If our comprehensive questions on the right do not cover the gamut of your caffeine-fuelled media-driven shallow emotional life, please vent in the comments section below.

Why isn't there an option for “All of the above”?

We seem to be subject to a survey wanting to interview people who do not answer the phone.
There appears to be some problem …

It's interesting that I'm firmly in with the majority of your readers, Mr Denmore (although I wasn't entirely happy with any of my answers … )

I always thought I must be a Martian, but now I'm sure of it!

You're a shameless bastard Mr D.
As penance….You are condemned to being interviewed by C. Uhlmann on national TV until the rapture *REALLY* begins. 🙂
Mr D · June 8, 2011 at 10:36 AM
Heartless paddybts! And I forgot to include a question about your favourite TV host. Mine's Bill Collins.

I'm not sure what to vote – what would Andrew Bolt want me to think?
Mr D · June 8, 2011 at 11:31 PM
Andy, Mr Bolt wouldn't want you to think.
Dan · June 9, 2011 at 12:19 AM
Mr Bolt does the thinking for you. How much easier can it be?

I got cross with you at first 'cos I really wanted to tell you where I'm at! Then I settled down and enjoyed the questions! Particularly on who is best to run the economy. The Nationals, of course, ably led by Barnaby!
A propos of which, Mr D, I think I finally worked out how to post a comment with an appropriate linking identity.

The questions are so hard. I don't know which of my personalities to apply to it, The Punch or The Political Sword to name but 2. You are too hard MR D, I will have contemplate and answer tomorrow, unless I am allowed to answer multiple times.
Notus · June 9, 2011 at 11:56 AM
Please phone me at dinner time to ask me these questions (even though I am on the “do not call” register)
