Description[?]:
A brief guide to Luthorian politics LEFT: The sorts of leftist parties seen in other nations or RL have generally failed to gain traction in Luthori, where the working class is largely morally conservative, and when they do succeed do so in spite of their cultural liberalism. From the Social Democratic parties (4382 and 4590) to the Socialists in recent times, with few exceptions the most successful among them take a position if not of conservatism at least of silence. CONSERVATIVE: The conservative bloc is by some margin Luthori's strongest, and its members usually make up a majority of the Diet provided that there is not a sufficiently morally conservative left-wing party to eat into their working-class support. Luthorian conservatism is significantly less liberal and individualist than RL Anglosphere conservatism, and there are strands of it as supportive of economic intervention as the left (though from a statist rather than socialist standpoint). LIBERAL: Although a strong support base exists for liberalism in Middenriding and Shipleyriding, nationally it is in a minority position and apart from exceptional victories only able to enter government when the conservative vote is split and one of that bloc's members willing to support a liberal coalition. Liberalism's supporters are surprisingly more personally morally conservative than might be expected; many belong to less mainstream sections of the Church or even nonconformist denominations, and where support for socially liberal policies does exist it is out of either non-supportive tolerance or 'let them damn themselves' just as much as it is genuine acceptance. The latter viewpoint is for the most part confined to Luthori's few atheists, who can also be counted in the liberal bloc. |
