When it comes to the UK...

Liberal Democrats demand better

The Liberal Democrats exist to build and safeguard a fair, free and open society, in which we seek to balance the fundamental values of liberty, equality and community, and in which no-one shall be enslaved by poverty, ignorance or conformity.

We believe that each generation is responsible for the fate of our planet and, by safeguarding the balance of nature and the environment, for the long term continuity of life in all its forms.


We champion the freedom, dignity and well-being of individuals, we acknowledge and respect their right to freedom of conscience and their right to develop their talents to the full.


We aim to disperse power, to foster diversity and to nurture creativity.


We believe that the role of the state is to enable all citizens to attain these ideals, to contribute fully to their communities and to take part in the decisions which affect their lives.

Read the Preamble to our Constitution in full.


For a fair
deal.

Give every child the best start in life

By recruiting 20,000 more teachers as part of an extra £10 billion a year for schools.

Build a fairer economy
