We aim to bring together and re-invigorate the liberal-left in Britain through discussion and campaigning. To read answers to more such questions, see the Frequently Asked Questions.

Mission Statement

Is Britain run by a vast liberal-left conspiracy? Conservatives are often determined to find such plots stretching from the media and government to public services and other organisations.

Yet the reality suggests otherwise. Not only is public debate in Britain often lacking in left-liberal energy, if there was a vast conspiracy then it is way too disorganised and dysfunctional. Most of us believe in freedom, transparency, human rights, democracy and the public good. But somehow that isn’t what we usually end up with.

We don’t want to define what being part of the liberal-left means because that limits us. We want you to tell us where the liberal-left should be going and why.

Liberal Conspiracy is a space for us to:

1) Have an intelligent conversation about liberal-left ideas and values.
We want to do this by involving commentators from newspapers and magazines, thinkers, analysts, academics and think-tanks, but also ordinary citizens (through blogging) who are too often shut out of this debate.

2) Campaign for liberal-left policies and causes.
The internet helps citizens to get connected, organise and make our voice heard better than ever before. We want to open up a new space for individuals and campaigning groups who support liberal-left causes to come together and make change happen.

3) Get organised.
We can no longer depend solely on political parties, trade unions or fragmented single-issue lobby groups to drive change. The internet gives us new tools to organise ourselves from the grassroots, all around the country. It’s not about replacing older institutions, but building new ones to join them. We want to strengthen democratic liberal-left organisations, local and national, so this movement can be sustained over the long term. We want to be that online hub of information and collaboration.
