Canadian politics: red, Liberal party (center); blue, Conservative party (right); orange, New Democrat party (left); green, Green party (was kinda conservative, then had a meltdown around identity politics); BQ are kind of French separatists.

The colors are also meaningless as well since there was no global definition of each color means respective to political leanings. So it's basically a meaningless picture. At least the OP graphic (while it has some pretty big problems) tells you which is left and which is right.

Yeah I got that from context but I wouldn't just dump a UK political chart on everyone and expect them to be able to understand it not least because the colors all opposite to what you would expect from a US centric point of view

Red is liberal blue is conservative
