individual,

If my understanding is correct that Zimbabwe is well and truly in the pocket of the Chinese then you would be absolutely correct to claim it is leftist.

On this point you are being quite observant for a pseudo-intellectual.

Keep up the good work.

Your bestest friend, Mr Opinion.

And just imagine what would happen if the right ran the world; say like President Trump.

To suggest the right is right, and the left is pathetic, it just a wee bit simplistic.

Chris Lewis,

Please keep in mind that Scott Morrison, who is looking more smug each day, thinks that Trump is a great man.

To suggest the right is right, and the left is pathetic, it just a wee bit simplistic.
Chris Lewis,
Taking the obvious evidence into consideration to suggest otherwise is just plain wooden-headed !

when you see what is happening in south Africa, and recognise that Trump won because of major dissatisfaction with US policy trends, you may even consider the reality of problem years ahead for liberal democracies.

Nevertheless, my love of liberal democracy remains as the political system most capable of finding the right balance between the strength and weaknesses of left and right policy perspectives.

It is just that the solutions have got a whole lot harder.

..... problem years ahead for liberal democracies.
Chris Lewis,
There's no doubt of that happening because people will not learn by seeing pain inflicted on others, they do occasionally learn after they felt some of the pain themselves !
