Very interesting. I got more than half correct. It's a guessing game about what "percentage" of certain things people think. Mostly I was under rather than over.

Guessing?
Or being aware of the facts and figures? :bgrin

Well I knew the unemployment rate was only 6%, thought 98% of people voted (93%) and was right about the Muslims (2%), the Life Expectancy, Immigrants and several other things. Actually, I was much higher than the "average" score of 3, think I originally got 6 right out of 9, which is quite good. ;)

You can check what you got correct/incorrect ... at the end of the quiz there is the ability to check that.
