Mister M Posted May 16, 2017 Share Posted May 16, 2017 There is a relationship between a voter's politics and his personality. Tories like people to conform to social norms, which is why they have more the party for the police and police funding; and our 'broken' society. Tories are not liberal. But who broke society?

area 51 Posted May 16, 2017 Share Posted May 16, 2017 I have found that most of the hard left socialists tend to be the older generation rather than the young of today.I thought the young were into liberalism nowadays rather than being socialists and would be more likely to vote lib dem or green.I was a left winger when i was young but i have crept over to the right has i got older and my circumstances have changed.I hated the poll tax when it came out but i would love it now that i own my own home.I hate paying the council tax i have to pay when somebody in a house with five adults pays less than me and i live on my own.

Ture I find some young people learn more to centre left in the UK perhaps having three main parties two of which are left based helps. In the US is just two parties - Republican or Democratic nothing in the middle some Americans wish their was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least it makes it easier in the US,no coalitions and you know what you are going to get.Left or right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister M Posted May 16, 2017 Share Posted May 16, 2017 Was society ever not broken? Its a constant work in progress. David Cameron seemed to think Britain was broken, so I just thought it was a worthwhile question as to who broke it. I'm absolutely certain that had Labour been in power in the 1980s, many on here would be blaming the Labour Party for the soaring crime rates in the 1980s.

rogets Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 I had my first vote in 97 and as students we simply put the parties into a hat and pulled out one of the numbered balls. So I ended up voting conservative in 97 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
