reaches out to the Tories..............

us lefties are quite keen to see how you do (and not in a nasty way)

I came out in the same place as the Dalai Lama ie libertarian left

And I have never voted Labour or Lib Dem

I am -7.88 and -7.90

Hugely Libertarian and hugely left. I find that highly amusing. I am an Anarchic Communist. [proud]

I came out as very left which is correct, but also very libertarian which I don't think I am really.

-3, -3.13
Libertarian Left

What is an anarchic communist, is it one of those progressives they keep talking about?

Libertarian Left - in the middle. I'd say I was usually right of centre so what do I know. Clearly I have misunderstood everything.

sallyJayGorce, I am the same as you. The problem with it is that it doesn't really weight the choices adequately, and is a bit too somplistic in its view of what left and right is

• 8.5 & - 8.0

Worth bearing in mind that being an American site, pretty much everyone in the UK is going to come out as a pinko commie type I think the graph of UK party positions over time is interesting, though.

I think Xenia may well be the exception

would be interesting to see what daftpunk comes out as

I have an American friend who really thinks DH and I are pinko commies as DH's grandparents are members of the French Communist Party.

when I lived in Canada, they used to describe 'lefties' as "granola-munching, tree-hugging, hippy commies"

love it

I am libertarian left not as far down or as far left as either Dalai Lama or Nelson Mandela (-2.5, -3) - I'm having a re-think here.
