Case for a classical liberal political party

_{Humphreys, J. (2007), “Taking Classical Liberalism to the People“, Policy, 23:1 (August 2007), Centre for Independent Studies, Sydney, pp40-43.}

Classical liberals have been disappointed by the performance of the Liberal Party, and are likely to remain disappointed my any major party. While a minor party may not win government, they have several benefits from having an explicitly classical liberal political party such as the Liberal Democrats:

1. Better advocacy and reaching more people
2. Changing the parameters of political debate
3. Being copied by the majors
4. Votes and preferences
