My score on the profiler was in the middle of the upper left quadrant. Closest match in the UK was the Liberal Democrats, in Europe was Sweden's Piratpartiet. Other close matches were the French Greens, German SPD, and Dutch GreenLeft parties.

Interestingly, the British Labour party was shown as further to the 'socioeconomic right' than the Conservatives.

Re: Fascinating (4.00 / 3)

In The U.K. I am an almost perfect sub-set of the Green Party. I would be closer to the top of that compass were I less cautious about EU integration, which I favor, but about which I have concerns as to how it is done. In Germany and Luxembourg it would be Die Linke and in Spain it would be Izgierda Unida.

As the Dutch said while fighting the Spanish: "It is not necessary to have hope in order to persevere."

concerns (none / 1)

I'd be curious to hear your concerns about how EU integration is done - it would be a useful outside perspective.
