People have got politics wrong.
Each issue should be measured on its merits.
Some issues need to be dealt with according to one ideology, other issues, need to be dealt with the opposing ideology. (For arguments sake, left/right).
The thing is, that which way you swing will be dictated more by where society currently sits, and what the better outcome "for now and moving forward" is and some people will argue stubbornly about what is right and wrong, based on a political allegiance, rather than what the correct decision and outcome is, because they lack the critical and analytical thinking to arrive at the appropriate conclusion.
this is why when people say "the looney left, or the Fascist right" I start thinking to myself, why?? Because their idology is different surrounding a subject?? Nature conservationists, can be nationalists and still campaign for Green wedges to remain. Its called protecting our environment and making responsible decisions for future generations, whilst still achieving good outcomes for both now, and future generations.
this is where politics falls over. People think they are sports team to support without question and seem to revel in the glory of victory when their chosen ideology has a win. Its rubbish. thats how you end up with the extremes in politics which are generally negative in outcome.
