Very strongly agree

Yes, but only by court order

Social Democratic parties generally prioritize individual privacy and civil liberties, which would lead them to strongly support the idea that government monitoring of phone calls and emails should only be allowed with a court order. This ensures that surveillance is targeted, limited in scope, and subject to legal oversight, which aligns with their values. For example, the UK Labour Party has called for stronger privacy protections and legal oversight of surveillance activities.

Strongly agree

No, and enact legislation preventing government surveillance of citizen communications

Social Democratic parties generally support individual privacy and civil liberties, which would lead them to favor legislation that prevents government surveillance of citizen communications. For example, the UK Labour Party has criticized the Conservative government's surveillance policies and called for stronger privacy protections. However, they may accept some level of surveillance in specific cases, which is why the score is not a full 5.

Agree

Yes, but only for those with criminal backgrounds

Social Democratic parties may support limited surveillance of individuals with criminal backgrounds, as long as there is proper legal oversight and justification. However, they would still prioritize individual privacy and civil liberties, which would lead them to be cautious about endorsing broad surveillance powers even for those with criminal backgrounds.

Slightly agree

Yes, this is necessary to combat terrorism
