Examples:

Many Eastern European (and most Russian) left-wing parties. KPRF and "Motherland" most probably would be considered economically left (KPRF far-left) but socially far-right by European standards. Left-wing conservatism (as well as left-wing nationalism) is common in post-Communist countries. Striking examples are Polish "Samoobrona" and PiS and Bulgarian "Attack"; AFAIK some Eastern European social democratic parties also tend to be more socially conservative than right parties.

Some christian democratic parties (best examples probably are Chilean PDC and Dutch Christian Union).

Maybe some European far-right parties ("True Finns", Italian MSI, French FN under Marine).

Maybe also some orthodox commies like Greek KKE (on some issues).

And yes, I understand that there may be disagreements on what should be considered "economically left" or "right", "socially conservative" or "liberal".

But I guess that ALP is socially liberal in comparison with Liberal and National parties coalition (so it is still relatively socially liberal by Australian standards). Am I right?
