Where do you lie politically (1 Viewer)

As title suggests, just trying to gauge where most on this forum sit tbh

skybluetony176 · May 4, 2019

My natural position has always been centre right but when the Tories are so split that they are essentially two parties that leaves me in such a political wilderness that I actually voted Labour at the last GE as despite being led by the left their policies sat immeasurably more comfortably with me.

I’m of the mind now that I won’t be voting labour in the next GE and won’t be voting Tories either. I’m going to leave to make my decision closer to the day.

I guess what I’m saying is you need an in the political wilderness box.

Absolutely no idea

A a family we’ve always voted labour , I can’t lie as I’ve grown older I moved more towards the centre from the centre left and eventually across to the centre right .

I voted conservative last time based on the fact she said she would deliver Brexit (we don’t need to argue about that here ) but this time I wouldn’t know who to vote for .

Il have to look into the policies

The Political Compass

Nick · May 4, 2019

Your Political Compass

Economic Left/Right: -2.38
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -1.23

Whatever that means

Houchens Head · May 4, 2019

I've never voted in my life. Hate politics and politicians. Left, right, centre, left of centre, right of centre, inside right, inside left, centre half. What absolute bollocks!

Houchens Head · May 4, 2019

The thread title should be adjusted to "Why do politicians lie?"

Deleted member 5849 · May 4, 2019

Economic Left/Right: -8.13
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -5.08

Won't surprise some

Left of Gandhi, but more liberal than him.

Just a bit more work and you'll reach the fascist spectrum

Love a flip flop

Ashdown · May 4, 2019

I had a little go at this, results :
Economic Left/Right -5.13
Social Lib/Auth -0.31
So Err I'm still a bit unsure of exactly what all that really means ?!

On the economy you and NW are two peas in a pod

Tommo1993 · May 4, 2019

Yeah, quite worrying that !! Maybe I'll look again

Houchens Head · May 4, 2019

skybluetony176 · May 4, 2019

Economic Left/Right: -4.0
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -4.87

chiefdave · May 4, 2019

Economic Left/Right: -9
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -5.18

xcraigx · May 4, 2019

Economic Left / Right: -5.75
Social Libertarian / Authoritarian: -1.23

Pretty much the same point as Gandhi which comes as quite a surprise.

Sky_Blue_Dreamer · May 4, 2019

I don't lie anywhere politically - I merely misspeak or provide alternative facts.

Sky_Blue_Dreamer · May 4, 2019

Economic Left/Right: -3.38
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -5.79

So I'm centre left with a strong leaning towards libertarianism. Closest to Gandhi on the graph.

Nick · May 4, 2019

Who would Gandi vote for?

Sky_Blue_Dreamer · May 4, 2019

He wouldn't tie himself down to one party and would flip-flop

You marrow growing leftie!

Cov City Daytrader 87 · May 4, 2019

So mine is:

Economic Left/Right: 1:88

Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -0.62

shmmeee · May 5, 2019

This is an American site isn’t it? So would put people further left than they would be here Id imagine.

Regardless:

shmmeee · May 5, 2019

Here’s the 2017 UK parties for reference. Maybe it doesn’t skew left actually.

Grappa · May 5, 2019

Economic Left/Right: -10.0
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -8.41
Boom.

Earlsdon_Skyblue1 · May 5, 2019

I thought it would say I'm literally Hitler...

It actually put me right in the middle but slightly to the left. What the fuck.

I'm a leftie?? WTF.
