The Liberal Institute
The Liberal Institute is an independent “Think Tank” which aims to promote ideas and debate within the Liberal tradition.
It is not part of any political Party but deliberately draws on and seeks to develop Liberal thought. It draws inspiration from the following important statements within that tradition.
- A dual approach to politics, acting both inside and outside the institutions of the political establishment;
- A primary strategic emphasis on community politics; our role as political activists is to help organise people in communities to take and use power, to use our political skills to redress grievances;
- The provision of an aggressive political lead on issues of moral concern, injustice and oppression and the use of these campaigns to publicise Liberal attitudes and policies. We aim to identify with the underprivileged of this country and the world. (Liberal Party Strategy 70)
The Liberal Party exists to build a Liberal Society in which every citizen shall possess liberty, property, and security, and none shall be enslaved by poverty, ignorance or conformity. Its chief care is for the rights and opportunities of the individual, and in all spheres it sets freedom first. (Pre-amble the Liberal Party Constitution)
