Center of the political spectrum. Left is socialist, center is liberal (over-lapping ideology with socialist & conservatives), right is conservative.

I'm affraid you'll have to wikipedia them, even after two years of A level politics I'm finding it hard to explain their ideology exactly. Mainly because it changes so much, in the UK at least. Typically socialists like political policies which make society fairer by giving monetary aid via government schemes to poorer people, not "wasting" money on defense etc. While conservatives like to keep the money they make by lowering taxes, they like defense etc. Liberals fall somewhere inbetween.

But as I said it changes in the UK, labour 'copied' conservative policies back in 1997 they won, conservatives think "Oooh, nice idea!" and do the same - their ideology is so similar it's hardly worth bothering with. But what else is a man to do? Lid Dems don't stand a chance atm. :P

Away from my moaning, just look at the links ganon's posted - easier to understand. :p

Non-religious conservative

Ideology wise I'd say I'm liberal/conservative, but the Lib Dems (UK) aren't likely to win, labour need to have some alone time and rethink, so conservatives all the way.

It could! Or rather there's a 1% chance it could =p

In April 2008, it was announced that two simulations of long-term planetary movement, one at Paris Observatory and the other at University of California, Santa Cruzindicate a 1% chance that Mercury's orbit could be made unstable by Jupiter's gravitational pull sometime during the lifespan of the sun. Were this to happen, the simulations suggest a collision with Earth could be one of four possible outcomes (the others being colliding with the Sun, colliding with Venus, or being ejected from the solar system altogether).Wikipedia

Also I'm highly disappointed, I thought the url bbcode was [u rl="URL"]WORD[/u rl] (without the spaces of course) but apparently not. But anyhoo, here's a link to the wiki article -http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Risks_to_civilization,_humans_and_planet_Earth#Less_likely_cosmic_threats
