As an old fashioned British Labourite I would naturally be a Labour voter (even if only for emotional reasons last election...)
No, Likud aren't far-right. On the right yes, and even more so now that the moderates are leaving, but they aren't actually calling for a Greater Israel or a halt to the peace process.
No, they will certainly be centrists. You have to remember that in Israeli politics "left" and "right" refer to the peace process. For the past few decades bread-and-butter issues haven't really mattered so much, despite the depression. Most Israelis generally have moderately socialist views on economic issues and recent economic policies are pretty unpopular
but don't split down left-right lines. The Ha'aretz newspaper generally takes an almost Thatcherite approach to economics for example.
Not really accurate; the party ran a dove last election and came away with one of it's worst ever results (in fact it might have been it's worst ever result). Significantly the new leader didn't run based on the peace process; he ran on the economic depression and won because turnout in the Kibbutzes (Peres's traditional base) was low as there was no hawk to vote against. And he broke with Sharon for the same reason.
Not at all; basically Secularists. More an anti-Shas party than anything else IIRC.
A complicated party; ultra-orthodox but based around poorer immigrants from other middle eastern countries and so on. Usually the key coalition party.
The other parties don't really matter until after the election when they'll matter a lot.
