I think it's a lot better at placing people on the Libertarian/Authoritarian scale than on the Left/Right scale. Having said that, the page did say the Left/Right scale was pretty unreliable in classifying people (which I'd agree with for the most part) so I guess a lot of their effort was probably focused on the other axis. I just think a lot of people will come out more Left-Wing than perhaps they should. A few questions were badly worded too, so it was hard to tell if they were looking for descriptions of the world as it is or the world as it should be. I'd guess they were looking for the normative judgements, but it wasn't entirely clear.
Still, good fun.

Your political compass
Economic Left/Right: -1.62
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: 2.77
Hmm I'm a bit different but close to the middle. I am slightly Authoritarian and slightly to the left. I am closest to the Pope. I wonder if anyone (which I doubt) stands right in the middle!

Paddy Ashdown.
The Pope, IMO, is as authoritarian as they come.
