It doesn’t and it never has been. The problem is that when people generally refer to social conservatism nowadays they’re referring something entirely different altogether. The U.K. is generally opposed to the pathological, regressive, ultra "liberal" woke-f***ery and with good reason, too. But that doesn’t make it socially conservative. There has been extensive polling on this stuff and when it comes to same sex marriage, immigration, ethnic & religious minorities, the U.K. is one of the most liberal (in the true sense of the word) places on planet Earth.

Only because of social engineering. And f***ed up polling. Never forget that. People confuse a certain British attitude towards the laissez-faire with liberalism. So, for example, do most people in the UK care that much if a bloke wants to wear a dress and call himself Mavis? Probably not. But do they then want that bloke following their daughters into a public toilet? Definitely not. The British are, as are the vast majority of people all over the world, 'socially conservative'

Edited by EverybodyDannsNow (07 Jul 2022 3.56pm) It is not compulsory for Left-leaning parties to be anti 'socially conservative'. Look at the old left. Anti-EU, not keen on migration (British jobs for British workers-remember that?) and so on. In fact, always rather liked the line about how the Labour Party was more informed by Methodism than Marxism. It is only from the 80's onwards and accelerating at a rate since 1997, that it has become so ludicrously socially progressive. If Labour were to become more socially conservative, then I suspect their economic policies would receive a far more sympathetic ear than people realise.

Around Windrush, 80 percent were against the immigration....it's entirely due to social engineering.....just like you believe in buzz words from your era that didn't exist before. As can be seen with gay marriage. Culture is downstream from law.....people are forced to comply and adapt. There is no such thing as being 'more liberal'.....The elites hand down the system with its media, 'education' and messaging and those within it adapt over time. It's the same in any society independent of how right or left wing the elites are....Saudi or Sweden.....they decide. Edited by Stirlingsays (07 Jul 2022 4.24pm)

Nowadays if a middle class family dressing in western clothes and sounding like they either have British accents or that is the aim for their offspring move into their cul-de-sac, most people don’t give a fvck. It’s when the negatives of immigration (fact or subjective) become visible, and worse, land in their area.

Do you consider any of the current left parties to be socially conservative?

Edited by Stirlingsays (07 Jul 2022 4.24pm) Other examples of social engineering would be the decades of anti-immigration rhetoric pumped out by tabloids resulting in a generation of people utterly obsessed by the topic. Or the decades of anti-EU rhetoric pumped out via the same platforms, and more recent questionable (at best) use of social media data by the leave campaign, which have resulted in Brexit. 80% were against Windrush at the time because they were 'socially engineered' to believe they were an inferior race and somehow genetically more criminal. People were opposed to gay marriage because they were socially engineered (predominantly by the church) to believe it was sinful and disgusting. The idea that these were somehow the 'original' views untainted by social engineering is just silly.
