To ask if in your household you all share similar political leaning?

[CarbonEmittingPenguin]

Just curious really. I've always been a LibDem supporter but since they've been blown into oblivion I'm considering changing my support or rather joining another party. I'm quite politically active so these topics do interest me. My H is a Tory through and through, come the EU referendum I'm going to vote to stay and he'll vote to leave. Our dcs are also split, they haven't had the opportunity to vote yet but at the next election they will do. Does everyone in your family home or even your family members have similar political views as you?

DH and I are both very right wing. I could NEVER marry a leftie I find their views very strange and we would argue about it all the time I'm sure!

I imagine it's hard to marry someone with polar opinions (in many aspects not just politics)

I know it's derailing but I would love to hear some strange leftie views! I don't agree with "righties" but I don't find their views "strange"!

DH's family are all to the left of Jeremy Corbyn and my family are all to the right of William Hague.

DH and I are both pretty much in the middle. Generally, we both float around libdem (at the moment).

DP and I are a pair of old lefties and I could NEVER be with a rightie I find their views very strange.

DH and I don't share the same political views, I would love to be married to someone on my wave length politcally, but with one exception, I am clearly not very 'attractive' to left wing men - I don't know why but even when I was much more radical about my politics at university it was always the Tory boys that asked me out .

Even amongst my friends I seem to have very few left wing friends - certainly all my family are conservative voters.

Both DD and I are card carrying Labour voters. DS is too young to vote but I suspect that my leftie values have rubbed off on him. DH had always voted LibDem and is not all that clued up about politics tbh. When DD and I enjoy a good shout at the TV during a Tory politicAl broadcast, DH tends to keep quiet. Both my parents were ardent middle class Tories, although DF did start voting LibDem later in life.

We are both lefties but we don't agree on everything and DH is not as passionate about politics as I am.

I don't think I could be married to someone whose values were fundamentally different from my own although my Mum is a die-hard labour supporter and my Dad is a Tory and they're very happy together so I suppose it can be done!

I could certainly never be in a relationship with someone who supports the current government.

I'm still undecided about how I will vote in the referendum and DH is from a European country so we are not discussing it at a personal level, just the broad issues - I will keep my vote private. For national politics while we have similar values, he doesn't get to vote in UK elections so we've never had a chance to disagree!

Both old fashioned socialists. I can't imagine finding a tory attractive - I tend to like decent, kind people.

Our 3 oldest sons all old enough to vote all vote Labour. The eldest is a member of the Labour Party. My best friend works for the Labour party. Think I hardly had a tory friend ever - even the poshest people I knew at uni were all left wing.

My mother was left wing despite being a farmer's daughter, also hated racism etc long before 'PC' was a concept. My dad more of a liberal/floating voter. All my closest friends are very left wing. But then if I picked up someone was right wing, I'd probably never get close to them in the first place so it's a sort of self fulfilling prophecy.

Yep, DH and I are old lefties, with Green tendencies, our two student kids are the same. Sixth former DC3 is practically a Marxist. To be honest I was too at her age.

In our last (local) elections, we all came out of the polling station and declared we had voted Green.

Arf at all the folk describe themselves as lefties and voting labour

My partner and I both have very similar political views. The way we vote is based on what we think is morally right, I'm very impressed at all these couples with totally opposing views who presumably also have very different outlooks on life.

That's a bit sneery Its. I suppose people just vote for the best of a bad bunch. Better than not voting.

DH is a Tory, I am Lib dem but only because of new labour, I find no one fits my bill at all these days.

People's political stance does not always imply their kindness levels. Some of the most cuntish people I have ever met were new labour and I used to have many dealings with MP's from all political parties due to my work.

Similar,I wouldn't be able to live with someone on the extreme left.

All unrepentant lefties,though ds one tends to the anarcho-syndicalist wing. aka fucking loopy

I have always voted lib dem and dh switched from labour to lib dem a few years ago. I don't think I could be in a relationship with someone who was right wing. We would be fundamentally too different.

DH is SNP, I'm Labour. We were opposite sides for the Indyref.

DH and I are both Democrats; he is more center and I am more to the left, but we agree on most things. He and I both voted for Hillary in the Florida primary (early voting, actual election day is March 15). Both of our adult children are also Democrats.

I really don't think I could be married to a Republican.

I'm left liberal, OH is right liberal. Don't have a problem with that.

DH and I started off with similar political views, but he seems to have become more right wing as he gets older, whereas I've started leaning the other direction - probably due to reading about the massive social inequalities on here funnily enough. I don't want to live in a country where people are once again reliant on food banks although we have plenty of money for increases to politicians pay packets apparently.

The uniting feature in my household and wider family is that we all hate the SNP with a passion. I think we all vote lib dem or conservative

Me and DP are what I would describe as hard left.
Both very politically engaged, have been/are involved in loads of activist movements, I couldn't be with anyone who wasn't politically engaged or in any way right leaning!
My Dad is leftwing, my mum is a hardcore socialist.
DPs parents just regurgitate anything they read in the Daily Mail

I do have friends who are right leaning, and we have some interesting debates down the pub, but all of my close friends are the same as me and DP, all veggies/vegans, very left wing, touching on the anarcho side in places!

Green voter here. Tried going out with a Tory once. Lasted ten days. Never again.

DP and I agree leaving the EU would be utter madness.
I'm Labour and he he is too but in a best of a bafd bunch way. He doesn't really like discussing politics and can be a bit dismissive of feminism as still needed.

singlenst the minute, but my last partner had similar political leanings to mine. My eldest is a ferocious beast who hates the very fibre of the Conservative and UKIP machines. Thankfully she's only 13 so not even remotely old enough to inflict herself on any a dosages who dare to call, but she did growl at the UKIP rep trying to hand leaflets out near school on polling day last year:o
