  1. The idea that a political philosophy that strives to replace liberal democracy is able to be located within a liberal democratic parliament has always struck me as very erroneous. Fascism, National Socialism, and Marxism are all interpretations of the Young Hegelian's political assertion that society will evolve or progress to shed itself of liberal notions of the sovereignty and primacy of the people. Such "progress-ive" philosophies maintain that representative democracy itself is an invalid notion. So left and right do not apply to non liberal parties or faiths that are unable to enter into debate as a means of developing ideas and arriving at a more reasoned resolution of what is the best course of action. Left and right wings by definition cannot have a bar of ideas that do not look to open democracy, debate and compromise.
