Politically, are you left or right wing?

[beorhthelm]

where does monster raving looney sits on left/right axis these days?

 

[Wrong-Direction]

I've seen videos from the far right and far left today smashing shit up and fighting with police. I'm disgusted by both of them. I think I'd put myself in a separate group of idiots that post stuff on a football forum.

Good thread, especially at this most of interesting of times.
Always thought I was a bit on the left, trades union member, could not really relate the stereotypical Tory toff, on the other hand I cannot imagine voting for the Labour Party now, they are certainly, in their current guise not a party of the working class. Turning their backs on their core support may well cost them the next two elections.
Answer to the op, don’t know.

Dont fit. Only certainty would never. vote for extreme lefty like Corbyn. Buy Sunday Times to read throughout week but think Mail is rubbish. Would put taxes up to help underprivileged.Would stop sale of council houses. Above all would do everything to encourage entrepreneurs as above all think profit and employing people is so important and pays for Public Services. On subject of latter, sorry to say excluding NHS I have dealt with so many in different departments and have hardly been impressed with anybody.. All nice people but wouldnt last long in private business. Needs a shake up but wont happen.
Until he was more interested in world stage thought Blair was looking ok. Not popular here but thought BJ would be OK and would look at whole picture. However PM job after Corono Virus will be a poison chalice that any party would find difficult to survive.

 

[This is me]

I voted for Tony Blair’s Labour Party 3 times. Since then I have cast my vote elsewhere. Labour will never get back into power until they persuade floating voters like me - under Corbyn there was no chance that I would vote for them & lent my vote to the Tories last time around & Lib Dem’s before that.

If there was a general election tomorrow it would be a choice between Lib Dem & Conservatives but if Starmer sorts out his party I would consider returning.

I swing to the right

I dress to the right...









Can’t be arsed to trawl through the thread to see if anyone else is as funny as me!

 

[The Antikythera Mechanism]

I remember my dad telling me that when he had a new suit made, the tailor would ask, when referring to the trousers, “Do you dress to the left or the right?” That wasn’t about politics, was it?

I hang to the right as well but politically I am so far left I almost bumped into Genghis Khan going right


Edit : I could have been even funnier and said I lean so far left that my left bollock became my right bollock but not sure how many would have got the joke

...the moderating team is well left of centre overall

Can't speak for the others but I am right of centre.

I'll always try to moderate impartially but of course I will make errors.

I used to be very far to left for a long time. I didnt like centralisation and at least in Sweden the left was very much things like the concept of EU, American imperialism and deregulations of markets (which in theory should lead to de-centralisation but in reality leads to private monopolisation) and I really disliked law & order since I saw it as tools to oppress the people.

Later, I realised that most of the left were in general very pro centralisation and when even the hardcore left started to see EU, UN, the World Bank, the World Health Organization, the media conglomerates as their "allies", I said feck it. I dont like globalisation.

At the same time I cant consider myself right-leaning either. While the left is too pro-centralisation, right politics are too individualistic and not rarely too naive of the idea of markets magically working out best solutions for mankind. Optimally I would like some middle road: I want each city or village to rule itself, creating a multitude of lifestyles and cultures.

The political question closest to my heart though (and part of my anti-centralisation stance) is de-technologisation. I believe digital society is very harmful short and long term despite of some obvious advantages.

TLDR: Neither right or left. I vote Theodore Kaczynski.

I’m left of Engel

[Razzoo]

The left have gone too left. I used to read the Guardian. Voted Labour blindly. A number of things about Labour turned me off, anti-Semitism, Brown calling that old lady a bigot, Thornberry, Shah, Lammy etc. Voted Tory recently cos of Brexit. I'm not a commited Tory though. I hoped the Liberals could get their act together but Swinson was the worst. In short they all turn me off tbh. (Funnily enough my Dad started out as a communist and ended up a Tory)

 

[LamieRobertson]

That’s my business

 

[nickjhs]

Left wing and without a major party to vote for as they are all right of centre.

 

[Weststander]

That’s my business

Ah, a Commie then.
