-wing.

The meaning of right-wing "varies across societies, historical epochs, and political systems and ideologies."[30] According to The Concise Oxford Dictionary of Politics, in liberal democracies, the political Right opposes socialism and social democracy. Right-wing parties include conservatives, Christian democrats, classical liberals, nationalists and, on the far Right, racists and fascists

Yes. It's probably nearly my bedtime.

The term Tory was originally an insult.

This was a joke coz of the why i think tories are wrong topic. But yeah tory was originally an irish word for thief i think?

I noticed when they got caught fiddling their expenses (all politicians, not just tories) that one of them said it was their entitlement, then not long after everyone made a fuss about their sense of entitlement that phrase got passed onto benefit claimants so it wasn't associated with self entitled politicians any more?

The word Tory comes from the Irish word 'tóraidhe' which means robber!

Quite apt really...
