  Interesting readout above on the IQ situation, although I would suspect that social standing or mobility is the real reason behind people ending up in various situations and in various political parties. If you take the BNP above it seems to suggest low brow capapbility is the real reason people are there. People congregate at their own social level and this is very much a lower working class movement. Its a pretty thicko but simple philosophy though, at BNP level, and is made up of...
  hating all foreigners
  hating everyone of a certain skin tone
  hating everyone and everything about Brussels
  always wearing a Union Jack about the person
  always wearing very large boots with lots of laces
  so perhaps not very bright but easy to follow. No thinking required.
  
  On the other hand at top of the tree, or almost, you have the highbrow Liberals and arch Guardian readers. All members of the chattering classes. All woollly jumpers with added green outlook. They wear red socks with their green corduroys and are forward thinking. They tune into Andrew Marr on sundays, while peering through the pages of The Observer, and tut tut about Gordon Brown. They think that nice red haired Kennedy chap is a bit of a secret sozzler but jolly jolly decent. They sometimes mix with the Greens at social functions and are all fans of that shadow shadow chancellor chap who's name escapes me for the moment. They all cheered when he called Mr Brown "Mr Bean"...oooh I say..what an insult!
  
  So there we are, a cross section of todays society...and you wouldnt want to be anywhere else? right?
