Today I saw a comment saying "Mark Carney is not center-right, he's a *liberal WEF Bilderberg globalist POS bankster* What image do people in your country conjure up of a centre-right person?

In my country, center-right is PP (traditional right party). There used to be C’s, but they crashed down.

I’m American, we don’t have those anymore. But formerly, people like John Kasich, Tom Daschle, John McCain

Carney… First thing that springs to mind is his complicity in perpetrating a very British genocide, over 130,000 people culled most cruel, with not just media silence, but media egging on the hate to excuse it with lies, until Francesca Martinez broke the media silence on what was going on, in 2019, with what was dubbed the TV moment of the year, on question time… www.youtube.com/watch?v=VvRz8HrEVKY “over 130,000”'s a numbing statistic that hides the reality. Calum’s List highlights just some of the stories. calumslist.org | dpac.uk.net/tag/calums-list/ | web.archive.org/web/…/calumslist.org/ … It could not have happened without Carney’s complicity. Cameron, Clegg, Osborne, Carney. Blood on their hands. People tend look only at the politicians, if at all. Well he’s a politician now too, not just a banker, at least in this phase of his in-and-out of the revolving door. He’s due scrutiny, and more. Real monsters, there are.

The left-right linear political spectrum is a simplified fiction. I think it is a waste of time to try to fit people on this spectrum.

Ken Clarke is probably the person I’d most associate with “centre-right” politics in the UK.
