I have never been to a hackspace in Britain, but my impression from
visiting them in other countries is that they are often closely
affiliated with the anti-fascist movement, having historically served as
an incubator for what is now the European Pirate Party (not to be
confused with the European People's Party!)
In contrast, the hackspaces in the UK seem to be less overtly political
and have more in common with the Do-It-Yourself and Maker philosophies.
I'd be interested to hear whether this matches your experience or
whether I'm describing a distinction which does not really exist.
