This test is pretty bad. Skewed to Americans and there were several questions where I did not agree with any of the options.
The result: Liberal Democrat,which is not a position with which I identify.
My broad political position:
Pluralist with an emphasis on social justice rather than economics. I have never conflated material standard of living with quality of life and
see consumerism as a fatal flaw of capitalism.
I consider pure ideologies naive at best, dangerous at worst.
The American cult of individualism bothers me. It seems to be used to allow some forms of social injustice and inequality which I think are unconscionable in such a rich country. But hey. I'm an outsider, what do I know?
