Loony Left

Left Wing political policies or ideas that are utterly ridiculous and absurd to the point that only a lunatic could possibly think they were in any way valid.

Labour had no chance of getting elected under Kinock, he was from the Loony Left.

Refers to threads on a screw, nut, bolt, etc. To tighten, you turn to the right (clockwise). To loosen, you turn toward the left (counter clockwise). A few exceptions exist, notably old propane cylinders and some pipe fittings.

"How do I get this screw out?"
"Righty tighty lefty loosy!"
