Tough one really, as politics is so different. Probably overlaps moderate Republicans and conservative Democrats, but like any party it has it's hardcore element.

Tories (R).

Easily.

Plus, I have an affinity for the gentlemanly, Etonian, Saville Row, Jermyn Street Brits...while I share little in common with the good-ole boys in the GOP.  Tongue

Republicans. Both parties have been ruined by their big government loving establishments though regardless of their rhetoric.

Tories (D), though Reagan never attempted a poll tax.

Tories!

I'd almost certainly be voting for them at the next general election, if I were British.

The Tories, but I have no love for either of them. The Tories are just less bat-s**t insane on a personal level.

GOP -- the Tories' emphasis on social immobility, class consciousness from the high end, and preservation of old privilege are immensely offensive to me.
