- Results are based on 1,002 interviews conducted on the MORI London Omnibus by telephone with a sample of residents in the Greater London area.
- Interviews were conducted between 6-16 November 2003.
- Data are weighted by gender, age, work status, ethnicity, and Inner versus Outer London to the known profile of Greater London.
- Where results do not sum to 100%, this may be due to multiple responses, computer rounding or the exclusion of 'don't know/not stated' response categories.
- Where there are small bases (less than 30 respondents) responses are given in absolute figures rather than percentage answers.
