• MORI interviewed 1,977 British adults aged 18+
• Interviews were conducted using MORI's MFS Omnibus and were face-to-face, in-home
• Fieldwork was 31 May-5 June 2001
• Results are based on all respondents unless otherwise stated
• Data are weighted to the known population profile
• An '*' indicates a finding of less than 0.5%, but greater than zero
• Where percentages do not add up to exactly 100% this may be due to computer rounding, the exclusion of "don't knows" or to multiple answers
