48% of UK voters share our outlook
The outcome of the European Union referendum was not what the Liberal Democrats wanted, as a party. As individuals, the majority of us are still reeling with disappointment, grief and anger. But although the verdict was devastating, we are heartened to see that our inclusive, open and outward-looking values are shared by the 16 million people in the UK who voted alongside us to remain in the European Union. We stand proudly with the 48% of voters who believe in a co-operative, internationalist approach, and who reject the politics of division, isolation and self-interest.
The Liberal Democrats exist to build and safeguard a fair, free and open society, in which we seek to balance the fundamental values of liberty, equality and community, and in which no one shall be enslaved by poverty, ignorance or conformity. We are united in wanting to build a country that is tolerant, welcoming and fair.
We are proud to be part of the 48%. Are you?
If you share our values, consider joining the Liberal Democrats, and help us to build the country that our children and our grandchildren deserve to inherit:
