1 (a) This source is adapted from the YouGov website, which analysed the 2017 General
Election: its findings covered a range of topics that influenced the electorate. It attempts
to understand the reasons why people voted for a particular political party.
Source 1
YouGov found that newspaper readership was a strong predictor of voting patterns. 73% of
Guardian readers voted Labour, while 79% of Telegraph readers voted Conservative. The media is
now a vital factor in determining how people vote. Age has also become a significant element, as
recent governments have treated older people more favourably than the young.

Voter’s age
However a person’s employment and the work they do are also important. The Conservatives led
Labour by 11 points among people working in the private sector, while Labour was 10 points
ahead of the Conservatives among public sector workers. A person’s social class has considerable
influence over how they will vote, as does the region in which a person lives. Labour is no longer
as dominant in Scotland as the Conservatives are in Southern England outside London.
Using Source 1, evaluate the view that a person’s age and the media have now
replaced social class and region as clear indicators of voting behaviour.
In your response you must:
• compare and contrast different opinions in the source
• examine and debate these views in a balanced way
• analyse and evaluate only the information presented in the source.

1 (b) This source shows information published by the House of Commons on the
income and membership of political parties in Great Britain. The source then
reflects on the significance of this data and questions its implications.

• There are big differences between the incomes of different
political parties and where they source their funds.
• This creates a fear that a ‘rich’ party can ‘buy’ an
election because other parties lack the funds to make
their case effectively. Often parties’ income and their
donors are unknown until after a general election.
• The income patterns of political parties are changing – for
example, membership fees have now substantially replaced
trade union donations as Labour’s main source of funding:
whereas the Conservative Party continues to rely heavily on
private donations.
• State funding, in which each candidate’s election campaign
is funded by the state, might marginally increase the taxes
people pay; but it would make general elections a contest
between equals.
Using Source 2, evaluate the view that state funding of political parties would be
preferable to a situation in which a party can win a general election because it has
more members and income than other parties.
In your response you must:
• compare and contrast different opinions in the source
• examine and debate these views in a balanced way
• analyse and evaluate only the information presented in the source.
