The left-right spectrum is not very useful, since liberals and conservatives both have their own pseudosciences, and that's ultimately more harmful than their political leanings.
I'd be more interested in a science-pseudoscience spectrum.

Perhaps a 3d representation would be nice (adding on another axis).

Interesting to me how the conservative party is very high and to the right (extreme within its box) compared to the labour party which is close to the center overall.

In the US, based on the same spectrum, the democratic party would probably be in the top right box as well, and the republican party would be in the corner.
