Left wing is: labour, green party, socialist worker party (extreme)
They think that rich people should spread/share out their wealth to create more equality. For example more taxation from the rich to pay for support for the poor. They support nationalisation (public health, state education). Pro Europe, pro immigration and multi-culture. Pro - gay marriage, women right etc. Pro environment and worried about climate change. These are newspapers like the guardian and the mirror.
On the other hand right wing is conservative, UK independence party (UKIP), British national party (BNP). Its now supporting the now government. Their overall message is 'you earn what you work for, and you keep what you earn'. So survival of the fittest/richest/best educated. They believe in privatisation of things like health care, education etc. Do not want a 'welfare state' i.e. benefits etc.
In favour of brexit, anti-immigration, many voted against gay people, some have 'traditional' views of women and pay. Often tied to the church and christian beliefs.
