The Liberal Democratic Party, shortened as LDP, Liberal Democrats, or Lib Dems, is an Australian political party founded in Canberra in 2001. The party espouses smaller government and supports policies that are based on classical liberal, libertarian principles, such as lower taxes, opposing restrictions on civil liberties, decentralisation, utilising nuclear energy, and the relaxation of smoking laws. The LDP is a registered party in the Australian Capital Territory, New South Wales, South Australia, Victoria and Western Australia and was formerly registered for federal elections with the Australian Electoral Commission. As of March 2023, it only has one representative in the Victorian Legislative Council, David Limbrick, and elected representatives in some local governments. The most recent federal representation of the party was in April 2022, when independent senator Sam McMahon joined the Liberal Democrats, giving the party representation in the Australian Senate. However, she lost her seat in the May 2022 federal election and the party was deregistered at the federal level on 19 July 2022. More information...
