Right/left wing doesn't really refer to political parties. It refers to ideology. And everyone has a political ideology even if they don't realise it. For example, a lot of you have said you aren't affiliated with any particular party you just vote for who you think can do the best job. Well what do you base that on?
Say there are two main candidates in an election. Candidate A is proposing cutting the income tax and introducing a school voucher system to give students who perform well access to private schools. Candidate B is proposing raising the income tax on the highest income earners so the government can spend more money on public schools. Who do you vote for based on those policies? If you say candidate A you are likely right-leaning, if you say candidate B you are likely left-leaning.
Now that is just an example using just some policies that right and left wing politicians in the modern world may support. So don't go just based on that. But basically what I'm trying to say is that everyone has political opinions based on a general political ideology that is either represented by the right, the left or the center.
