Title: Right-wingers are less intelligent than left wingers, says study in Daily Mail

This must hurt a bit, I guess the Daily Mail should be given credit for publishing.

"Right-wingers tend to be less intelligent than left-wingers, and people with low childhood intelligence tend to grow up to have racist and anti-gay views, says a controversial new study.

Conservative politics work almost as a 'gateway' into prejudice against others, say the Canadian academics.

The paper analysed large UK studies which compared childhood intelligence with political views in adulthood across more than 15,000 people.

The authors claim that people with low intelligence gravitate towards right-wing views because they make them feel safe."

If I remember right, there's an incubation period for Norovirus ( if it's that ) and also 48 hours quarantine to stop it being passed on.
