Australian political identity survey

Andrew Norton, editor of Policy magazine, is inviting conservatives to respond to a survey he is conducting on political identity and how political labels relate to policy positions. He is particularly interested in “where people who call themselves classical liberals differ with and overlap with people who identify as libertarian, conservative, or social democrat”.

He writes:
“To try to see to what people with different intellectual political identities believe, and on what they agree and disagree, I have devised an online survey of about 40 questions. There is a question on party support near the end, but the main point of the survey is to see what people willing to identify as classical liberals, libertarians, conservatives, and social democrats believe, regardless of their party affiliations. I’ll publish the results over Easter.”

You can respond to the survey here.
