Your politics

[cromwell]

After consulting Steve "none of the above" option has been added to the thread.

No box for rabid capitalist!!

I would have thought Thatcherite Conservative would have sufficed for that option.

My poll was not a question about politicians. I think most of them are useless too. It was about values and what you believe in.

Where's the none of the above box ?

I was about to ask the same thing.

Where's the none of the above box ?

[patman post]

Playing the game and ticking a box, I'm currently the sole Thatcherite.

However, I would like it recognised that I don't accept the term Neo Liberal, mainly because I am uncertain what it actually means — like so many terms bandied around on forums these days...


PS: I turned to Wiki as I hoped it might direct me to a useful description — but even there I see getting a clear description is not going to be easy. It says: The defining features of neoliberalism in both thought and practice have been the subject of substantial scholarly debate...

[Sampanviking]

I would not sign up for any of those pigeonholes

What do I want? well

Leaders how actually lead and are not shills put in place by our Oligarch class
A genuine free market that is not simply entitlement for the billionaires just dressed up a little
Public Services that are properly funded and deliver what they are supposed
Infrastructure that is there to enable and not operate as a private monopoly profit center
A Property market that enables young workers on modest incomes to get on the housing ladder
Work that actually pays and an end to Mega Corps being able to operate zero hour contracts

Social policy that really stands up for traditional family values and keeps the freaks and pervs in place
Streets that are safe for the law abiding to walk down at night
An end to the US imported yob/gang culture
An end to woke madness

I could go on but I think those are the highlights...

[papasmurf]

Which are?

Honesty, Compassion, defending those who cannot defend themselves.

[cromwell]

I have values politicians do not.

Which are?

[Nalaar]

Of the options given, centrist is probably the closest.

[srb7677]

I have values politicians do not.

Well what are yours? That is what the poll is asking.

[papasmurf]

My poll was not a question about politicians. I think most of them are useless too. It was about values and what you believe in.

[srb7677]

No, it means the current crop of politicians of all political parties are totally useless, with the Tories getting the uselessness gold medal.

Does that make you an anarchist?
