A friend of mine has sent me an email regarding the JPR poll he got from the ZF's Alan Aziz that was apparently sent to all people on the ZF's mailing list.

It is imortant that as many of us as possible complete this
Thank You
The Institute for Jewish Policy Research (JPR) has been commissioned by the Pears Foundation to carry out the first ever national survey of Jewish opinion about Israel. The research is being administered by Ipsos MORI, and we would very much like you to take part.
This important online survey will only take 15 minutes to complete and does not require any special interest or knowledge about Israel. We want to hear your views, whatever they may be. The results of the survey will help us better understand the feelings, attitudes and attachments Jews in Britain have towards Israel.
Take part now by clicking here.

Does this mean the poll will be skewed by self-selecting activists? And, if the ZF is doing it to make it seem that support for Israel is far higher than it actually is, who's to say that the anti-Zionists aren't doing the same to prove the opposite?
Any way you look at it, the poll is compromised since any fule can set up free email accounts and answer the survey's questions several times, while those of us who really do have a life get on with said life.
