So I had a look at vote compass and my top three are Green, TOP and TPM

Bottom is ACT as expected.

Has anyone else looked at vote compass this year?

Even though Green lines up "best" with how I answered the survey, I still wouldn't vote for them. I find them too idealistically driven.

The quiz positioned me firmly in the lower-left quadrant, with no political parties nearby. I guess I have to work out which of my values to compromise - do I go up or right?

Economic left, social conservative would traditionally be working class, and traditionally be represented by Labour. But I agree with you and the website that Labour has abandoned the working class, leaving no good alternative. I think it's an important factor causing the political unrest at the moment.

TOP has always felt like a wasted vote because they're so damn far from any chance of representing me but tbh, I'm at the point where a wasted vote is the best option.
