It's not surprising because they used to be Marxists before but they can shape shift depending on the situation. So, it won't make a difference if you split your country along these superficial ideological lines.
    Which only demonstrates how not even the right would get along. How hard right do people want it? Many more moderate right wingers wouldn't want to see abortion restricted or anything but equality for LGBT+.

    Society moves on and so does the definition of current conservatism. 100 years ago would have looked pretty liberal to Victorian conservatives.

    How broad will the church be? Will the far right with all their racism get on with the centre right? Of course not and despite many voting for the same parties they do so for very different reasons. The left is just the same as we are currently seeing with the Labour party mess.

    Religion is another example. The hardliner won't get on with more moderate members who follow it line by line.

    Let's remember much of it was never big on equality. Plenty of inequality on the left too.
