7 Google Searches That Tell You Everything You Need To Know About The Upcoming UK Election

Want to know what the UK public are really thinking ahead of the 2015 General Election? Google's search suggestions reveal 7 big and often bizarre questions on the nation's minds.

Who Should I Vote For?

For some, the big question is simply "should I vote?" But floating voters, and those voting for the first time, are thinking about who they should support. For that enormous undecided mass, the top choices seem to be UKIP, the Green Party and Labour.

Will UKIP Be the Extreme Right Wing Party of My Dreams?

For those considering voting UKIP, there is an unsettling, albeit predictable thread of anti-immigrant feeling in the questions they're asking Google. Some want to know whether the bedroom tax will be scrapped, but "sending immigrants home" and "stopping Islam" are the big issues that potential UKIP supporters want to know more about.

Does Nigel Farage Have Hidden Talents?

I'm sure there's a perfectly reasonable explanation for this one, but I'm avoiding running a Google Image Search for this query just in case.

What About the Green Party? Worth a Punt?

Hmm. When "are the Green Party any good?" is the most positive question being asked, you have to wonder whether this is a party being taken seriously by the populace at large. Could "are the Green Party racist?" be an optimistic inquiry from UKIP defectors looking for a new home on the UK political fringe? Who knows. Natalie Bennett, you've got 68 days to turn this round.

On the Subject of Natalie Bennett...

Given her car-crash 'brain-fade' on LBC radio the other day, Bennett can consider herself lucky that people seem more bothered about where she's from and what she eats than whether she has a basic grasp of the financial implications of her party's policies. It looks like being vegetarian, or indeed vegan, could well be a dealbreaker for potential Green voters.

Unlike Bacon-Eating "Blancmange in a Hurricane" Ed Miliband...

The big questions around the Labour leader are a little more relevant - just how left-wing is he? So left-wing that he refuses to use his right hand at all? Pertinent stuff. Oh, and people are genuinely asking if he's Asian.

And Finally, the PM. Tell Us About His Kinsfolk...

It seems the British public is somewhat preoccupied with DCam's possible genetic links with everyone from Her Maj the Queen to beloved drug-addled saviour of the nation Winston Churchill, and, erm, Kim Kardashian. Some just want to know if he's dead, but surely death isn't a concept the CamBot 3000 reptilidroid worries too much about.

Anyway, happy voting!
