Year 12s: what will be the first way you research your future options? >>

What political ideology do you believe in?

Hi all,

Just intrigued as to what party/ideology you support. I identify as a libertarian, someone who believes in social liberty and more emphasis on the free-market. I support drug decriminalisation, gay marriage, a woman's right to choose, a smaller state, lower taxes and the abolition of the minimum wage. What are your views?

Let's keep this a nice clean debate.

I'm a conservative (not the conservative party, just conservative in general) but as an ethnic minority I believe that the Labour Party is the best right now as they do more for ethnic minorities, students and have a less aggressive foreign policy.

- Socially conservative (though cool with gay marriage)
- Laissez-faire capitalist (though cool with minimum help and an insurance style of universal healthcare but put more emphasis on private health care)
- Federalist
- Republican

Social - Centre left (support pretty much total autonomy within personal lives as long as it doesn't harm others )
Economics - Right (capitalism has been the best invention of the human race so far and until a different system which has been actually proven to work well, its needs to stay)
Personally think the conservatives are the ones to be handle the country right now, we are at a point of economic uncertainty and I wouldn't trust labour with any forms of economics given their track record (better then the greens tbf).

Somewhere between Social Democracy and Third Way politics. A fan of Tony Blair if you leave out the Iraq War.

Liberalism/libertarian. Although I agree on your points and I generally support the free-market, I think we can apply ideals to economics only to a certain degree.
