I like how it decided I was an emergent service worker without asking me if I worked in the service sector. Also, the main thing about the poll is the fact that it is extremely revealing of how utterly middle class the people making the questionaire are. For example only South Yorkshire miners watch sports (including everything from third division football to polo) while the thought of the great unwashed enjoying opera or ballet or jazz would shock the sensibilities (and prejudices) of whatever middle class cretin designed this thing. Also, apparently 25% of the British public are in management or the professions. Which sounds like a topheavy economy with five people supervising every rank and file worker or, more likely, complete horseshit.
