Aaah yes, thank you, so much clearer! I appreciate that the Green Party is actually green, ha. Also I am gonna be tripped up by the red blue dichotomy if I understand Labour vs. Tories correctly since it’s kind of the opposite here in the states. We need some different colors over here too.
ha! Yes you’re absolutely correct the blue = conservative/Tories (your Republican party) and red being Labour (the equivalent of your Democratic party). To be honest I think the UK/Europe’s colours for the left and right and seem more logical and traditional but I would say that 😉

The red and blue being inversed is mostly (only?) in the US as far as I know. Everywhere else blue is right and red is left.
Another counter example is South Korea, the right wing PPP are red and the left wing DPK are blue.
