Just curious to see where people are if they fancy having a go. I think this one is more based around American politics but the premise and questions are not too bad.

https://www.politicalcompass.org/test

My results, I tend to swing left or right of the center line depending on the test but always libertarian, I dont actually have a political party to vote for Laughing https://www.politicalcompass.org/yourpoliticalcompass?ec=0.75&soc=-4.21

The parties chart has UKIP, labour and conservative as more right wing than BNP and the greens/plaid commie as libertarian.

UKIP is a libertarian party. Authoritarian would be the the Greens or Labour, where it's "do what we want, or -consequences-".

Believe that link was posted in a similar thread a while back? I remember I did the quiz then but didn't post the result last time.

Was interested to see if much had changed in my result since then due to a lot going on in the EU (i'm now voting out, which I probably wouldn't of expected the last time I did it). The result actually came out almost identical still; whether the quiz is very accurate in terms of political stance and how it correlates with parties generally though, meh - I think for the most part the Green party are an utter shambles.

Most of the people I know with even generally similar opinions to me are also voting out - I do particularly dislike a lot of the tar-brushing of brexit'ers as nationalist, right wingers etc (or if they're really desperate, racists etc) thats going on at the moment. I don't think its the case at all.

That was my take on it but I'm not 100%. Did you see the political map in the last post? I think they correlate that information based from the party manifestos and the election run but it surely is subject to personal bias.

For them, left means good and right means bad.

The 'test' reflects bugger all. Mine is pretty close to yours and our political views appear diametrically opposed.

I'd drop it in the same class as astrology.

I would give them the benefit of the doubt, left right should be socialism - capitalism as an example. And to be fair, Labour shouldnt call themselves left wing, maybe Corbyn can get away with it hence his party troubles.

With the volume of questions asked you could get very similar results and yet disagree on a great many things hence things are not straightforward.

I'm waiting to see if we get a heavy authoritarian result who I tend to agree with in comments.

Maybe some people who are coming out in the red/blue/purple need to post some of their answers and explain themselves!

Actually, lets not go down that road.

Maybe I am a soft lefty after all. Shocked

This is the difference between my test if I simply swap 5 borderline agree/disagree decisions (these were ones I wanted to answer don't know or no opinion)

It sounds nasty, but you can't credibly disagree with it if you have seen the size of the queue of street shitting people over in Calais.
