Houbêrt Louxhî (born 15 April, 1969) is an Autuzian politician and economist who has served as Chancellor of Auzance since 16 July, 2017, and has been the Leader of the Liberal-Progressives since February 2017. Louxhî also served as Prime Minister of Auzance from 2012 to 2015. Identifying as a progressive, he has been associated with economically social democratic and socially progressive views during his premierships.
Louxhî was born in Ercalvey in 1969, to a relatively well-off suburban parents. He studied Economics at the Republican University of Cestiène, graduating with a first in 1980. During his final year in university, Louxhî joined the Liberal-Progressives and began to actively participate; his dissertation was on the legacy of the Labour government's economic reforms of the 1970s.
The political liberalisation of the 1970s and 1980s saw a new generation of centrist and centre-left politicians enter the fray for the first time in Autuzian independent history; Louxhî was one of this "New Generation" of politicians, entering the political scene as a Minister for the Tchambe in 1988, coinciding with the rise of the first Liberal-Progressive government. Louxhî was appointed to the Cabinet of Prime Minister Bragård in 1991, serving as a Minister to the Treasury for twelve months until the election defeat of 1992. Louxhî remained a backbencher for the Liberal-Progressives throughout the 1990s and 2000s. Louxhî reprised a Cabinet role, this time as Minister for Education, in 2004.
The defeat of the Rossele government in 2007 ended eight years of Liberal-Progressive government, and returned Labour into government in a landslide, resulting in a political upset where much of the party's centrist establishment were washed out of office. Louxhî stood for the party's leadership in 2010, in the runup to the 2011 general election, however lost to centrist candidate Tchåle Raxhon; Raxhon led the party to electoral victory in 2011, however resigned within a year, resulting in Louxhî being elected the leader of the governing party, and thus the Prime Minister. Louxhî's term as Prime Minister was marked by a leftward shift in Liberal-Progressive policy towards the centreground of Autuzian politics, rather than Euclean politics, embracing measures such as the universal basic income and private utility bans. He resigned as parliamentary leader after being defeated in the 2015 general election, seeing the Labour party return to power.
Louxhî was elected Chancellor in July 2017, replacing the Communist-Left Chancellor Vinçant Wiyåme, in a shock defeat to the Labour party. His chancellorship has been marked by a shift towards improving relations with the Euclean Community, a move away from the obstructionism of the Wiyåme chancellery, and a relatively bipartisan approach to his relationship with the governing party and his own party in the legislature in order to foster compromise. Supporters praise his ability to forge legislative and diplomatic agreements, while critics find his electoral history mixed and movements of the Liberal-Progressives' agenda compromising towards the liberal movement in Auzance.
