The ICM survey interviewed 110 pupils for education watchdog Ofsted.

(oh really? Gee farkin wizz, like that is some significant population sample taken. What crapola. Ofsted need to be disbanded, and it's current employees chucked on the unemployment scrap heap where they belong. -ng-)

Nearly half those pupils polled said it was not important for them to know more about what the political parties stand for.

And 4% of those questioned thought the Conservatives were in power - while 2% of them believed the Lib Dems were.

The survey also looked at issues of nationality. It found the Union flag and fish and chips topped the list of symbols and foods associated with being British.

Many of the pupils also looked on themselves as English, Scottish or Welsh, rather than British; while the notion of being European hardly occurred to anyone.
