General Election June 2017

Right now there's some insane overlap/union between the alt right, UKIP, anti-vaxxers etc. They have an (irrational) anti-establishment narrative to sell and it's appealing to a significant segment. The idea that only the young voted in significant numbers for Corbyn is wrong and so is the idea that only the old voted for Trump or Brexit.

Lol, I work for a bank. I suspect most of my IT colleagues are in the green corner.

Nicely put.

I've always considered myself an anarcho-syndicalist and that workers need to run businesses cooperatively. And cooperative businesses need to cooperate with each other for the bigger geographical society and offer services that benefit everyone. Where is that on the chart?

Ha!

This is a fun game

For balance, there have been young ancaps and antifa in Europe for decades. Recently they can get some funding from the EU via communist non-profits. {this is not a right-wing myth, I've worked for them} I don't want do underplay the hard work or good intentions of the staff/volunteers but the 'lifestyle' element to these groups is vital. It's their attraction, it's their HR strategy. They're not well run so aren't very effective in much ... other perpetuating the lifestyle.

I think with the 'alt-right' there is something very similar emerging. What is definitely different is that their youth 'spawn' online rather than through activist protest/camps/projects.

Fascist! ;)

-2.38
-6.67

Naahh... I got the same-ish result as you lot. Fairly left and mucho libertarian.
But I think the questions should be updated to reflect environmental concerns.
My ideal environmental legislation will in no way be libertarian.

Tonseln, pls

Yeah, it does falls down if you don't subscribe to established weighting of issues. More accurate may be one for each; Social, Economic, Environmental.

Amazing... *tips fedora*

Shopped, I can see the pixels.

Actually, I reckon this compass is representative in a way, but mostly as a testament to how sexual- and identity politics have recently been given an outsized priority on the political left.
Of course I think that consenting adults should be able to shag willy-nilly on their own accord. But that's just a sliver of what I take into the equation when I consider my voting options.

Having voted Lib Dem most of my life because I wanted proportional representation, turns out that I'm now closest to the Greens on most things. Which shouldn't surprise me, given what I do for a living, but somehow it does.
