The second group is the liberal left and everything to their left.
The first group only becomes a problem as it reaches the extreme right - National Socialist in nature which is largely absent from the UK.


Naturally, there are many believers to the left of centre but so many of these have to compromise their beliefs in order to accommodate their political leanings. Generally speaking, this requires blinkers to be worn in all political situations!
