Are people politically engaged?
The Hansard Society (a political and research charity) have published their findings on public attitudes to politics which uses a range of political engagement indicators. This is the fifth annual audit and one thing that seems to have remained constant in the findings, through the years, is how few people are politically active. In fact only around one in eight people are politically active and the majority of activities are small such as signing a petition.
