Number crunching

All stats taken from Mori exit poll at 2005 General Election, broken down by newspaper readership:

For every Labour voter who regularly buys the Independent, 11 regularly buy the Sun

More Labour voters buy the Daily Mirror than any other newspaper

More Lib Dem voters buy the Daily Mail than any other newspaper

Not many readers of the Daily Star vote, but those that do overwhelmingly vote Labour.

I remember reading an exit poll (a long time ago - possibly even '92) that showed the two papers with the readership least likely to vote were the Daily Star and Financial Times. FT readers were actually slightly less inclined to vote than those of the Star.

And that's my fact of the day.
