……left leaning or right leaning? I think it is more right leaning-AIBU?

used to be more to the left (or felt like that) but there has been quite some change. a lot of posts which reflect the right wing agenda these days.

Right of centre, slightly watered-down Thatcherite Tory, lower-middle class.

Obviously lots of people not in this group on Mn, but I would say this is the heartland in terms of current politics.

I think life in general has had people running away in horror as the left have become more and more ridiculous, unworkable and entitled. The trans farce has definitely played a part in it. So I don’t think it’s mumsnet per se, more everyone.

Previously left, now centre, inching towards right.
People don't hold back on an anonymous forum.
In RL, I'm sure they sit centre/left for fear of being labelled far right.

It leans to property owning middle class types certainly, and AIBU brings out the radgie ones especially at the moment. It's also quite hostile to environmentalists.

Until recently (have been on MN 20 years) I'd have said left-leaning, but now I'd say right. I think the gender critical discussions have attracted more people who are right of centre.
