    A conservative because you probably don’t live in a communist country which means that workers are being stolen from which means that the laws aren’t as pro labour as you describe them to be.

      Certainly they could be better, but the fight now is with the “right” trying to make them worse, which is what I wish wouldn’t happen.

      I guess my intention was to point that “Conservative” is a relative position.

        Sure, it’s a term relative to time and place. Are people that want to preserve labour rights called conservatives in your country?

        In most places in the West conservatives don’t really want to preserve the status quo, they’re often reactionary and want to go ‘back’ to a previous (or imaginary) status quo

          You are completely right, but in these cases the proper name, I think, would be Reactionary, as you said, or Retrograde.

          And Stagnantive should also be a separate category.
