A recent study by researchers at the University of Padua and the Max Planck Institute for Demographic Research (MPIDR) has revealed that political differences between partners can significantly increase the risk of separation. Using long-term data from UK couples, the researchers found that those with different party preferences were substantially more likely to separate than those with the same political beliefs. The risk is particularly high when there are differences of opinion on Brexit.
In a different system where you’ve got multiple parties and there’s the “20% of GDP goes to welfare, we’re meh on cannabis, duh on gay rights, our top priority is unions and workers rights and our second priority is environmental protection” party and there’s the “25% GDP to welfare, we’re meh on unions and workers rights, duh on the environment, top priority is gay rights and second priority is education” a couple made of one member of each of those two parties will probably work, because those two parties likely unite against the “20% of GDP goes to kicking the poor in the stomach, we’re death to the environment and death to workers, our top priority is making the rich richer and our second priority is war in the middle east” party.
