In the 17 elections where the Economist has backed a party at a General Election they have backed the Tories 13 times, Labour 3 times and the Lib Dems once (at the last election). They backed Harold Wilson in 64, Blair in 2001 and 2005. As did Rupert Murdoch, that well known critic of capitalism.
The notion that it is not a right wing magazine is risible. The sort of nonsense that saw Ed Miliband portrayed as a dangerous radical.
