  Girondist
The Girondists (in French Girondins, and sometimes Brissotins), comprised a political party in France within the Legislative Assembly and the National Convention during the French Revolution.
The Girondists were, indeed, rather a group of individuals holding certain opinions and principles in common than an organised political party, and the name was at first somewhat loosely applied to them owing to the fact that the most brilliant exponents of their point of view were deputies from the Gironde.
On the spirit and policy of the Girondists Madame Roland, whose salon[?] became their gathering-place, exercised a powerful influence; but such party cohesion as they possessed they owed to the energy of Brissot, who came to be regarded as their mouthpiece in the Assembly and in the Jacobin Club.

 Differences between Left & Right in their Psycho-Philosophic background
The Girondins started a process of creating a liberal-democratic regime, fashioned after the English model, which had been a stable system for six centuries, but the process lasted less than three years and halted when the Jacobins came to power.
On the other side of the French National Assembly, the Girondins, who shared the ideology of English Liberalism, supported the freedom of religion and the equality of all churches and religious movements, thus abolishing the privileges and the official status of the Catholic Church as the state religion (5).
The three humble positions are common to Girondins and the founders of the English and American Liberal revolutions.

 The Great French Revolution
When we see the Girondins "repudiating law," "refusing to recognise equality as a principle legislation," and "swearing to respect property," we may perhaps think all that a little too abstract in a hundred years' time.
advanced of the Girondins were too fettered by, their middle-class education to comprehend this right of universal well-being, which implied the right of all to the land and a complete reorganisation, freed from speculation in the distribution of the products necessary for existence.
The Girondins were generally described by their contemporaries as "a party of refined, subtle, intriguing and, above all, ambitious people," fickle, talkative, combative, but in manner of barristers.

 The Great French Revolution
It knew that so long as the Girondins remained in the Convention no real revolutionary measure would be possible, and that the war carried on so feebly by these sybarites of the Revolution would be prolonged indefinitely to the utter exhaustion of France.
Instead of federalising, everything done by the Girondins showed them to be as centralising and authoritarian as the Montagnards, perhaps more so ; for the latter relied at least upon the Popular Societies when they went on commission into the provinces and not upon organs of bureaucracythe councils of the departments and the districts.
When the Girondins appealed to the provinces against Paris, it was to incite the counter-revolutionary forces of the middle classes in the manufacturing towns and the fanaticism of the peasants in Normandy and Brittany against the revolutionists of Paris.
