1. Ordinary people get their fair share of the nation’s wealth. 2. There is one law for the rich and one for the poor.
3. Private enterprise is the best way to solve Britain’s economic problems. 4. Major public services and industries ought to be in state ownership.
5. It is government’s responsibility to provide a job for everyone who wants one.
6. There is no need for strong trade unions to protect employee’s working conditions and wages.
Response categories ranged from strongly disagree (1) to strongly agree (5). Items 1, 3 and 6 were reverse coded for the analysis.
