Weird, I always considered myself a bit more right wing and authoritarian, as opposed to slightly leftie and libertarian!

I bet you have long hair and eat lentil bake too, dont you?


Watch the BBC news later, i'll be there outside the top gear studio protesting about 4x4's! I'm going to drive down in a Cayenne Turbo.

Almost right in the middle, but slightly authoritarian, I like the sound of that

Pretty much where I was last time I did the test. Interestingly I still see the Conservatives as the best representation of this political orientation!!!

I suspect the wording and my interpretation of some of the questions may not agree with the scoring applied in the test though. I'd have guessed me to be more Libertarian and more economically right than indicated.

So a right wing libertarian.

Seems about right to me.

About right I guess, probably a little less authoritarian that I would have expected.

That puts me in the bottom right hand box, where just about nobody else seems to be. I have a feeling David Cameron is there with me. That's one vote for him then.
