I have been meaning to post this for a while, but I was rather pleased by this comment on the LPUK manifesto from an American libertarian. It places great emphasis on the Rule of Law. What I particularly enjoyed about the UK Libertarian's manifesto was that after reading it, I understood the libertarian philosophical goals they hope to achieved, as well as the practical approach to advance the Bri...

Apart from the LPUK notices outlined below, there are a few other things of a libertarian nature to plug. First, members of LPUK (your humble Devil included) will be talking to a combined meeting of the Cambridge University Conservative Association and the Cambridge Libertarian Society on Tuesday 28th October. The format is, I believe, similar to the Oxford meeting, i.e. a swift talk and then a Q ...

Seeing as Sir Michael White has decided not to write about the Libertarian Party despite the challenge laid down for him, I guess it falls upon myself to undertake an analysis of British politics, and show where the LPUK fits into the mainstream, but most importantly why it was necessary to form the Libertarian Party in the first place.

Libertarian Party LPUK Policy: Monetary Reform WHY DO WE NEED MONETARY REFORM? The monetary reform proposals of the Libertarian Party consist of three central planks. However, and before we can talk about what we'd like to change, we need to take a brief look at how the current banking system works, and expose the flaws that our policies seek to address. WHERE DOES MONEY COME FROM? Most peopl...

The new LPUK or "The Libertarian Party of the UK" Facebook Page has been live since the start of March (almost exactly two months), and new people have been joining at roughly 2:1 over the pre-existing Facebook Group We've had plenty of activity; there's integration with LPUK Press Releases (non-Party-members take note!), so they now appear in the activity feed... a recent appearance by Ken School...

8. UK LIBERTARIAN PARTY (62) The UK Libertarian Party blog is the blog of the newly formed political party of the same name, and several of the party's active members post there, including most interestingly the party treasurer Patrick Vessey. Vessey's emphasis on the global economy, corporations and bankers perhaps seemed esoteric 6 months ago - not any more, and now it's the LPUK blog that is in...

To get a flavour of the kind of disgusting little people that we libertarians are up against, why not have a look at this post from a... er... gentleman who tried to have the UK Libertarian Party website banned in the Netherlands (a tip of the horns to Bella). I have asked the Netherlands Interior Ministry to censor the website of the United Kingdom Libertarian Party, www.lpuk.org, and the party's...

Today marks the first Libertarian Party UK AGM & Conference. We are all looking forward to this exciting event, and there will be a full report when I get back sometime on Sunday. For this year, the LPUK Conference will be a closed event. Because of the extremely high level of Pro Government propaganda reporting by all of the mainstream press and media, we have taken the decision to exclud...

I am a Libertarian Party member, yet I am advocating voting for UKIP at the EU joke elections. Why? Here is why. LPUK have taken the honest, correct and principled stand of not standing in those elections. This brings a number of benefits. a) It won't be corrupted by the EU system that is designed to corrupt. b) LPUK will focus on the elections that truly matter. The UK one's. c) It is i...
