The Liberal Democrats - Reasons to Join Us or Support Us

Join or support us because we Liberal Democrats believe in…

• Respect for individual freedom, respect for privacy and tolerance in a diverse open society
• Fairness between governments and their citizens, fairness between employers and their employees, fairness in all our dealings with each other
• Fairness in sharing the prosperity we and others all help to build, fairness in the reward for effort and enterprise, fairness in the burdens that must be carried
• People, parties and nations working together to improve our lives and to put an end to conflict, exploitation and discrimination - however these may arise
• Helping each person to fully develop their potential by supporting parents, by ensuring access to high quality education and training and by removing barriers to social mobility
• Protecting and helping the disadvantaged, the sick and the vulnerable
• A Justice System from which no-one is exempt: not the state nor its ministries or officers; not financial or commercial organisations however large; not any individuals or institutions, however wealthy or influential they may be
• Encouraging positive participation in building a just society, a recognition of our rights and duties and those of others and a willing acceptance of the contributions that are needed to maintain and develop the framework of our civilization.

The Liberal Democrats are independent both of big business and powerful trades unions, so we are free to develop policies and to take political decisions in the interest of everybody.

We are working towards a Fairer Society - one which makes sure everyone gets on in life - but this is something that has to be campaigned for and worked for…

• It won't come from the wealthy donors to the Conservative Party
• It won't come from the powerful union bosses who support Labour

But it WILL come from people working together for liberal and democratic values
Support the Liberal Democrats and help build a better Britain.
