Political ideology
The Liberal Party is based on “liberty, equality and democracy” according to it’s rulebook.
The main ideological points since it’s founding have been feminism and rights for religious and sexual minorities.
Base of support
Despite relying for votes on religious minorities, sexual minorities and gender non-conformists in the 2111, 2115 and 2119 elections, it’s main voter base in the 2121 election were the middle class (especially merchant navy officers and academics) as well as sailors and skilled construction workers. All these categories were previous Traditionalist supporters.
There are three main factions in the party’s membership:
The classical liberals: libertarian-right, generally support neoliberal economics and anti-authoritarian social policies.
These members tend to be economists and entrepreneurs. Their average age is 28 and a half.
The centrists: libertarian-centrists, generally support gradual changes and are generally pragmatic rather than ideologues. Often with strong liberal conservative leanings.
These members tend to be middle-aged (ages 35 to 45) and common professions include civil servants in the Ministry of Labor and businessmen in the tourism industry.
The progressives: the smallest major group and, the most
left-wing, the progressives tend to support gender
non-conformist social views and social democratic economic views.
Generally young, middle-class women, often in same-sex relationships.
The membership is much more upper-middle class than the wider voting base, with social science lecturer being the most common occupation of the former.
