Help with my options!!!

I want to do an economics degree but I am stuck deciding between business studies or politics A-Level. Which one is liked better by the top universities such as Warwick or Cambridge etc. (Particularly Russel Group Unis)
Politics. A lot of unis see business studies as a 'soft' subject.
