As testing is the national sport of Apolyton, here's a British political test

It placed me as 'slightly left-of-center', which was a bit strange. I was in the free-market, non-Euroskeptic, non-flogging corner.

Also, it's a bit weird that one axis covers both War on Iraq and economics, and another axis covers Europe, immigration and capital punishment.

[Az]

non-flogging corner.

What's the "flogging corner"?

[alva]

It says I'm slightly left of centre and then suggests I should vote UKIP, although I would answer 'No' on all but one of the following questions:

"A person on the extreme right of this axis is likely to agree with all of the following statements:

* Britain's railways should remain in private ownership
* Rich people already pay enough tax
* I am comfortable with the way that genetic engineering is being used in the food industry
* The UK was right to go to war in Iraq
* Most people should take responsibility for saving enough for their retirement, rather than relying on the Government to pay a big enough pension to live on
* This country should try to become more like the United States of America than like France or Germany".

(I was undecided on Iraq (leaning to Yes at the time))

[Provost Harrison]

It tried to suggest UKIP ( ) despite the fact I am a pro-European...figure that one out...

In the seat I am eligible to vote in, it is a marginal Labour seat and very likely to lose to the Tories. In light of this, I may vote Labour just to prevent the Tories getting it

[Pekka]

What is Tories? Sounds like Mary Poppins to me.

[Spiffor]

Internationalist/rehabilitation -6.66 (very left wing). That's about right.

Economic: -0.3 (centre)

[Pekka]

Yeah that's about right, you can go rule the legoland now and cry with the legos...

[Provost Harrison]

I got -0.1 for Economics...I think the thing is we are trying to answer on how a modern capitalist system should be run...I am starting to develop a bit more of an opinion on this issue - however I still have this burning sensation that the whole organisation is rubbish, but could not be changed by reform...

[Dauphin]

As usual, these surveys ask stupidly worded questions...

Anyway:

Your position on this axis is -2.0
You are likely to be slightly internationalist and rehabilitationist.

Your position on this axis is 3.3
You are likely to be very free-market and pro-war.

[Dauphin]

Interesting that free-market people are labelled as being pro-war; and floggers are anti-Europe.

[Whoha]

I'm a pro-war isolationist.

[Immortal Wombat]

I was in the top left. Pro-war/free-market internationalist. Which is half right I suppose. Maybe I wasn't vehement enough on some of the economics questions. I think I prefer the axes labelling on the original politcal compass site though.
