I think I ended up as slightly left and strongly libertarian - been
ages since I did it. Hang on.

Economic Left/Right: -4.62
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -7.54

So what are you?

Heh.

I wouldn't worry too much, mind. It is a septic measure, and some of
the questions very much reflect that - I mean, why, FFS, would you
include questions about religious views? Fuck all to do with Moral or
Political leanings, but I'm sure that's what skews it towards the
libertarian.

<checks>

Hmmm, well, switching the religious answers round gives me 
Left/Right: 0.38 Libertarian/Authoritarian: -2.62. This includes the
astrology and 'luck' questions, which are so far away from concepts of
morality I despair of the test-makers who put them in there.

Economic Left/Right: -4.12
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -4.05

I'm keeping company with Nelson Mandela, the Dalai Lama and Ghandi.

Which is odd, because I honestly thought of myself as more to the
right economically.

My score is:
Economic Left/Right: -7.75
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -0.10

Before the test, I guessed that I'd be somewhere near Hitler, on the
