Re: So much for the views held here

Hugh asks a fair question. "Far right" and "right wing" to my mind are merged concepts. The pedantic might say that anything right of "centre" (whatever the "centre" is) is on the right wing of politics.

But generally, we all understand that, in present context, right wing politics = far right politics - namely the people that Starmer says support Lucy Connolly and the injustice of her imprisonment. Waters nicely muddied.

What’s your definition of right wing? (please don’t default to your previous standard answer of "its well understood"…
I endorse the political spectrum diagram provided that we can contextualise "centre".
