In my opinion the main differences between Left-wing and Right-wing people are that they try to reach the same goal in almost opposite ways. For example, if they are looking for the best interest of the people in regards to taxes there may be positives in both sides, free healthcare education, or lower taxes so people can do what they want with their own money. However it seems to me like the Right-wing seems to be progressing the wealthy class whereas in the Left-Wing they seem to be more interested in the poor and working class.
Yes. All humans should be able to enjoy the same fundamental rights and these should be protected by law.
The courts should try to reform and educate criminals so they will not want to commit any more crimes. Too much stress on ‘punishment’ makes them bitter and more likely to commit further crimes.
Multi-national communities are vibrant and forward-looking. We should do everything we can to demolish barriers between nations and cultures.
People produce their best work in a co-operative environment. Too little support prevents people from reaching their full potential (collectivism).
The government should carry out policies which are idealistic and just (‘What is right’). Revolution (rapid change) rather than evolution (slow change) is the way forward - moving slowly too often means not moving at all
High Taxes to pay for lots of public services (e.g. free education, pensions, healthcare) especially for disadvantaged people (the poor, the sick, the old).
We should use positive discrimination – e.g. requiring that businesses employ a certain amount of women, disabled people and racial minorities. Only in this way can we really start to break down prejudices in society.
Devolution is a good thing. By giving each region (e.g. Brittany in France, Catalonia in Spain) the power to run some of its own affairs, they will be happy to stay a part of the main country.
Key industries like the railways should be broken up into private companies which would be in direct competition with each other ('privatisation'). This would keep prices down and provide the best deal for the public.
