So what's Right Purple?

Someone who's economically Conservative but thinks people have the right to live however.

Hold on, Red is socialist, Blue is Conservative, Green is Liberal so what is purple most affilated with?

It's not technically that easy. The spot around the center, where we all are, is the same for all four almost. The extremes are authoritarianism to the top and libertarian to the bottom. Then you have economic left wing (Where you are) which is sort of socialist and shows that you are a bit against corporations and stuff. I'm on the economic right wing, where the extreme would be being against the NHS, but where I am is sort of in favour of corporations and lower taxes, etc.

The sections themselves don't matter much except in extremes.

Here, DG. I'm where the Lib Dems are. You're near Labour

Solid left wing libertarian as expected. Not far left, just left.

I do think the questions are too simplistic and aimed at an American audience. The centre is further to the right then it is over here.

That is completely wrong though and probably not even up to date, I mean how is Lib Dem over there for e.g and Labour are socialists to the core so how are they not in Red?

Labour of the Blair years for e.g is far from when Corbyns Labour is etc so those statuses would change over time.

Lots of arguments in this thread but I'm sure we xan all agree that:

Labour of the Blair years is near conservatives actually, it's on the same page as this one.

Corbyn's Labour is there because they're Libertarian, they don't seek to impose anything on anyone. So they're in the bottom left, not the top left.

Actually its nonsense that Lib Dems would be where they've been placed

Their whole thing is Libertarianism. Theres no way they should be in the top half at all

You do realise Lib Dems supported nearly every law that the Conservatives rightly made against terrorists? Including those that infringed on your personal data rights?

They strongly opposed the snoopers charter while in government, and prevented its introduction, and still oppose it.

Some questions are loaded af and there's no neutral option.

Economic Left/Right: -3.75
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -3.33


Some industries do need to be highly regulated for various reasons (such as pharma, commodities, internet, gambling, industries with a high carbon footprint, etc.), and although I'm fine with corporations making a profit, they also need to have a duty of social responsibility toward the environments and communities they're a part of.

Thought some of my answers would've shifted me a little more toward authoritarian, but I guess the religious questions dropped me down the y-axis lmao

Also, damn DG. You're barely to the right of me according to that test. Welcome to being a social democrat/center-left lol

Bercow says he will stand down as Speaker either on 31st Oct or sooner if a GE comes before that.

[UFGN]

LINDSAY HOOOOOOOOOYYYYYYLLLLEEE

[Phil71]

Odder! Odder! Oddaaaaaaarrrrrrr...the right Honourable member the Minister for the Duchy of Lancaster doesn't behave like this whenever I see him on the school run, so why does he feel it appropriate to behave in such a way here? I'd ask the Honourable gentleman to calm down...AND BE A GOOD BOY!

[Phil71]

Boris looks like he's going to try to sneak May's deal through by just renaming the backstop.
