I don't know if this will provoke debate but you can discuss the ideologies if you can name these.. this isn't a quiz by the way and I will not award you marks or anything, I am just trying to figure out the ideological terminology of certain ideas. :laugh:

- A person who is supportive of trade unions having power and influence, but not to the extent where they run a country and have too much power.

- A person somewhere in between Pro-Europeanist and Eurosceptic.

- A person who agrees with a mixture of fully-funded public sector, and private sector industries (along with renationalisation of some).

- A person who would not necessarily describe themselves as a pacifist, but is opposed to most military intervention in other countries.]

- A person who agrees with social equality between the sexes, races, sexualities, and all social groups, and tends to protect and defend the rights of minorities.

- A person who disagrees with zionism in concept but would not remove the state of Israel 'because it is too late'.

- A person who is opposed to a completely free market and rejects huge wealth inequality although would not support communism. (possibly same as one of the ones above?)

If you know a specific terminology that can be used to describe any of the bullet points above it would be greatly appreciated as it would help massively with my research, thank you.

I'd say progressive for a few, but that seems to be equated with 'loony leftie' now :/

Unfortunately that seems to be true. Just so you and others know, some of these are ones I associate myself with and others not so much.

Social democracy would fit most of them

They're generally Lib Dem type views, mainly leaning more to the Social Democrat side of the party

I would say open minded fits the bill.
