Re: So much for the views held here

I'm trying to get Russ to define "right wing", which is a term he used in relation to GB News. He framed a question around that so, before I can answer him properly, I need to know what he means by "right wing". Russ has avoided obliging me with his definition.

I'm not surprised - it's not easy. Past "right wing" has been founded on the Mussolini/Hitler model. But that was then. I've noted what Hugh has researched:

Quote:
Long story short, if you try to describe economic and social politics in terms of “left” and “right” simultaneously you will come unstuck. You need to define someone’s position as economically left or right and socially authoritarian or libertarian. And one position by no means pre-ordains the other.
No wonder Russ cannot justify his "overtly right wing" description of GB News (and by association - Reform UK).
