Bespoke has just published a detailed study on the language of the two main parties, previewed in tomorrow’s Guardian http://bit.ly/8XkcyA

Key insights include

1. Average Labour sentence is 19 words. Average Conservative sentence is 14 words.

2. Labour use two and half times as many stats as Conservatives. Conservatives tell two and half times as many stories as Labour.

3. Labour use twice as many military metaphors as Conservatives. Conservatives use twice as many nature metaphors as Labour.

4. Labour buzz words are tough, new and guarantee. Conservative buzz words are modern, together and responsibility.
