Voters back communism over fascism, poll finds

BRITISH voters would rather live in a communist system than under a fascist regime, by an overwhelming majority.

An opinion poll conducted by YouGov found that, if made to choose between the two alternatives, 80 per cent would prefer communism, once those without an opinion are discounted.

Labour voters would back communism over fascism by a 93 to 7 per cent margin, although one may assume that the 7 per cent would be over-represented in the party’s leading circles.
