Southie, conservatism is a relative term. US conservative philosophies are different than how they are in sub continent. Same goes for UK.

When you are labelling yourself to be a conservative in pakistan society, you might be labelled as extremist in states.

Seb, no question there are differences. Not sure if you meant extremist on the left or on the right.

IMO, a liberal from Pakistan/India probably votes liberal in UK, USA etc.
A minority in Pakistan/India probably votes liberal in their own country (since liberal views typically protect minorities).
There are folks who are conservatives in their country of birth (they probably belong to religious majority) bu would vote liberal in their immigrated country (UK/US) - since liberal again provides them better protection as a minority.

With that as context, I wonder if there are Pakistani/Indian conservatives who also vote conservative in UK/US - that is in support of Hannity, Limbaugh et al views.

One can be liberal and be religious - a liberal view just stands for equal rights/freedom for majority and minority alike

As an aside, most folks from KK forum strike me as overwhelmingly liberal.
