Bubba Bob Posted November 8, 2008 Report Share Posted November 8, 2008 Marty, what does "Ultra Right Wing" mean in NZ? Curious as to what other countries identify right and left as. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JDoors Posted November 8, 2008 Report Share Posted November 8, 2008 It's interesting that many nations are moving right while the US has pegged the needle to the left. Everyone says, "The US is too far right, it has to move left!" Then, in their own countries, they vote right. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jcl Posted November 8, 2008 Report Share Posted November 8, 2008 Marty, what does "Ultra Right Wing" mean in NZ? Curious as to what other countries identify right and left as.In American terms: slightly to the left of the Socialist Workers Party.Seriously, I think they'd be considered moderate Democrats in the US.
