It's not so much a left-right thing as it is libertarian-authoritarian.

It's not so much a left-right thing as it is libertarian-authoritarian.
- docdeek 8y agoThis is correct. The nominally center-left party in Australia, the ALP, voted with the center-right Coalition to get this passed. On the edges of the left and the right there were voices against this, but the center (where the most people are) went with backdoors.
- BigJono 8y agoAs of 2013 there's no way the Coalition can be called "centre-right" by any definition of the scale I've seen.
