  European Liberal Democrat and Reform Party - Biocrawler   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
The European Liberal Democrat and Reform Party (founded in 1993) is a liberal party, active in the European Union, uniting liberal and centrist parties around Europe which together represent more than 20 million European voters and is an international non-profit association incorporated under the laws of Belgium.
It originated as the European Liberal, Democrat and Reform party grouping with seats in the European Parliament, but on April 30, 2004 (the day before the enlargement of the European Union) reformed itself as a pan-European political party.

 Central Europe Review - Lithuania: Voting for Instability
The Liberal Union surged significantly in the last minute, earning 17.25 per cent of the vote, which is a convincing 16 seat allocation.
This result is calculated alongside the original party list ranking and the length of the list in distributing PR mandates—only the Centre Union decided not to participate in the innovative system, though it is a moot point, due to their failure at the polls.
Together with the poor showing of the Centre Union (two) and the lone (and barely won) seat of the Modern Christian Democrats, the four-party "New Policy" bloc took 67 seats (as mentioned earlier, as of press time, one seat remains challenged by the Social Democratic bloc and Liberal Union, with the latter currently considered ahead).

The Liberals became known as a pragmatic party of the centre, shifting to the left or right as the electoral conditions warranted.
It was the beginning of Liberal misfortunes in the West, as the party came to be seen as one that was obsessed with central Canadian issues, especially appeasing Quebec.
Liberal accomplishments from that period include medicare, the Canada Pension Plan, the Canada Assistance Plan for a national welfare policy, the guaranteed income supplement, the liberalization of divorce and the end of capital punishment.

 America Searches for its Centre - Council on Foreign Relations
America's embrace of liberal internationalism began in the 1940s, when President Franklin Roosevelt utilised the second world war to build a bipartisan coalition behind multilateralism.
The generation of Americans that fought in the second world war and oversaw the building of the west is retiring from politics, to be replaced by a generation that lacks the experience that formed the foundation of liberal internationalism.
Moreover, the political divide is falling along geographic lines; the coasts tend to be liberal and Democratic, the heartland conservative and Republican.

In the ‘centre’ they are joined by the editorial and leader writers of most of the newspapers.
Reclaiming Labour for the real centre ground, the majority of the working class, is not the end in itself but a means to an end.

 Global Insight // Same-day Analysis
The largest of the three is the conservative Homeland Union, led by Andruis Kubilius, and his espousal of the 'right-wing values' that he wants to guarantee in any coalition the party forms has raised eyebrows in the past.
The Liberal Centre Union, led by Arturas Zuokas, and the conservative Homeland Union managed seven and 11 seats, respectively, in the first round.
Kubilius has ruled out a coalition with the LP, but if the conservatives and liberals fail to agree to a working coalition with Working for Lithuania, the latter could still turn to the LP, although Brazauskas has for now moved away from that prospect as co-operation with the right is on the cards.

Perfectly happy to have a Liberal England....it would be a great deal more lightly governed than it is by the current managerialists of various colours.
Liberalism is letting people live their lives free of Government control - the mantra of 'if it doesn't harm anyone else' should be applied.
May 5, 2005 12:01:34 PM I'm totally confused by the political labels and positions in Britain, in the US Liberalism certainly doesn't mean "letting people live their lives free of Government control." They seek to impose ever more layers of control.
