Guardian Poll Seeming to Favor Bush Indicates Gender, Age and Class Gaps
Here's a link to the PDF File breaking the numbers down:

Over all, 43% of those polled "welcome" Bush's visit, "36%" wish he didn't come, and 21% don't know or have no opinion. Males, the young, Tories and Labourites, Northerners, Midlanders, and the middle class all seem to vote like the poll as a whole, while women, people over 65, the working class and Southerners voted in reverse. People over 65, in particular, seemed less likely to welcome Bush (50% preferred he didn't come, compared to 28% who welcomed him) or think the war was justified (47% said it was not justified, compared to 40% who said it was). Liberal Democrats were also less enthused about Bush, the Americans and the War than even the Labourites.
