The center ground of British politics could be further to the left than we think, according to new research. For example, diehard Conservative supporters locate their party at 7.82 on the left-right spectrum (ie considerably right of center) and place themselves at 7.53. But a more 'objective' measure suggests their political leanings are only just right of center, producing a score of 5.08.
