I've always been on the left. Initially because the answers the right offered seemed cold and lacking in compassion. Then I discovered marxism and took on an ideological form of politics.

My movement has been from the far-left, fringe, revolutionary side of politics towards mainstream parliamentary politics. I have very much changed my views as I have learned more about the world and heard different views expressed. In some things my views have remained as they've ever been, in other things my views have undergone a paradigm shift.

I don't think my views have really been altered at any point by a single speech or debate...but such debates have at times laid the groundwork for a change in view.

That said, I have never voted for any other party than the Labour Party, except in cases of a strategic vote.
