Thousands of people have shared a ‘misleading’ graph showing the results of a poll about Boris Johnson’s leadership. The graph, which was published by the Times, mixes up responses to two different questions.
60% of Conservative voters would like someone other than Boris Johnson to be Prime Minister in a year’s time.Incorrect. 60% of all voters gave this answer, in a YouGov survey published by the Times. Only 36% of Conservative voters wanted someone else to be Prime Minister in a year.
The longest bar in the chart is labelled with a number saying that “25%” of respondents wanted Mr Johnson to remain as Prime Minister. However the second, shorter, line of the bar chart is labelled with “60%”, to indicate the share of those surveyed “would prefer someone else to be PM”. These numbers and their bars are therefore not in proportion.
