I have just taken the quiz again looking at all the options and doing all the questions they have to see what the difference is.
Party Was Now Con 64 67 UKIP 50 58 LD 31 26 Lab 24 19 Green 0 15
Right Wing
All the topic/policy headings are Con UKIP or UKIP Con, except Immigration and Social solely UKIP, Health and Domestic solely Con, and Science were I am Green-Con-LD!
On the grids of polarization many are as expected but some did surprise 20% Protectionism 8% Pacifism 44% Isolationist 12% Progressive 76% Elitist (Yet in a populist party and espousing populism).
But not surprised by
74% Capitalist 56% Small Government 78% Assimilationist 64% Tough
I think this has generally got me fairly well placed. On the Grid I am again in the top right quartile just above the median line and a few graticules further to the right.

I found these harder to answer than both Irish ones, the first sweep had less than one answer in five. Applying a mostly Yes/No Occam razor then yielded:
64 Labour 57 Green 53 LibDem 41 Conservative 38 UKIP
About 10% Authoritarian and also 10% Left Wing, considered Centrist.
84% Keynesian/Laissez-faire 80% Pacifism/Militarism 60% Tender/Tough 50% Elitism/Populism 42% Traditional/Progressive 34% BigG/SmallG 28% Collectivism/Individualism 10% Deregulation/Regulation 10% Protectionism/Globalization
You disagree with Dover on almost all issues, especially Social and Healthcare issues.
Also please nobody take any bets on the above...

You don't have to be a Labour supporter to join the Co-Operative Party - the only restriction is that you can't be a member of any other party, and that's sporadically enforced at best (I've met a few Lib Dem councillors who were quite open about being Co-Operative Party members.) So it might be wise to wait for Adrian to clarify if that's what he wants. My response to that is they must be overpaid if they can afford to collect party memberships like that. Anyhoo, since I'm not standing for election, I don't count myself as Lab Co-op.

isidewith is ... odd (given that the UK version asks for my views on something called "Congress" and my position on Canada, but ...
Lib Dem 68% Lab 61% Green 57% Con 51% UKIP 34%
Quite reassuring.
56% multi-cult over assimilation 44% collective over individual (not sure about that one...) 84% tender over tough ! (aaah!) 44% progressive over traditionalist 78% pacifist over militarist 76% Keynesian over laissez fayre 30% regulation over deregulation.
Most at home in : Warrington, Wigan, Slough, Aylesbury/H Wycombe, Chelmsford, Lincoln, Luton and Taunton ... and Kilmarnock!
Least at home in: Shropshire and mid-Wales (!), Durham, Dudley and Croydon!

Just done the fullest version of isidewith's "UK" survey (sure I've done it before).
74% Green (environmental, transport, healthcare) 72% Labour (environmental, healthcare, immigration, economic) 62% Liberal Democrat (environmental, immigration, healthcare, economic) 28% UKIP (transportation) 22% Conservative (no major issues)
I am apparently a left-wing authoritarian.
32% Protectionism 86% Socialism 86% Multiculturalism 90% Keynsian 30% Regulation 30% Imperialism 70% Tender
I apparently disagree with most Coventry North West voters on almost all issues, especially social and foreign policy issues. But it's not telling me where it thinks I should move to in order to find more people who agree with me.

Science were I am Green-Con-LD! This isn't that surprising, at least to me: I've commented in another thread, in conversation with Khunanup, that it makes sense for capitalists to like renewables, recycling and so in. I'm not a Green but this is something that an awful lot of us on the right have common ground with them on.

A warm welcome awaits in Ross old chap, but I can't see why they suggest it? This is a SNP-LD fight with Conservatives recovering but still low. I think that it's based on how close my responses compare to those from Ross, Skye & Lochaber, I've only ever been to Fort William and Mallaig (lovely place) in Ross, Skye & Lochaber and Culloden, Fort Augustus and Loch Ness in Inverness, Nairn, Badenoch & Strathspey. Never been to Caithness, Sutherland & Easter Ross but I have a few friends from that area. Perhaps? We are very high in the Turnout records. You only touched the extreme bottom left of the constituency and a wild world of delight awaits you to the north. I would contend that no one really knows Britain until they have wandered way off road on Rannoch Moor and in Wester Ross and Sutherland.

Way off road somewhere in eastern Skye.
A native elder in full tweed gear in the distance approaching.
Get the heck out of my crops!
Me: What crops?
He: Unfriendly exposé.

Taking a bike on the rough is a recommended strategy though. It considerably extends mobility. Even if i can remember doubting the wisdom of it in the upper reaches of Glen Dessary.
I did like being called 50% elitist by the site.

Interestingly enough isidewith.com suggests I move across the border to West Somerset - where I'd probably end up as a kipper fighting Hinkley Point tooth and nail

It's a thin line between being a) part of the Establishment or b) just a misguided bigot, I can tell you.
