Liberal Party of Wiltshire

The Liberal Party of Wiltshire (German: Partei Liberalen von Wiltshire) is the third and newest incarnation of a Wiltshirian primarily-liberal political party (previously the Liberal Alliance and the Liberal Party, 3019). The party, formed by Sebastian Bashira in 3020, espouses the principles of liberalism, and generally sits at the centre to centre-left of politics. The party was formed due to a perceived lack of focus in government, thanks to the "radical" policies of Prime Minister of Wiltshire Mark Edwin and the "loyalty to the extreme" that many Liberals saw in Sonya Inyo's Liberal Conservative Party.
Liberals are standing candidates in the October 3020 Wiltshire Local Elections on the following platform;
* Introduce and increase a Wiltshire Child Benefit to help families keep up with the cost of living;
* Strengthen and secure our pensions so every Wiltshirian can be comfortable in retirement, without National Insurance hikes;
* Form and implement a public option for healthcare, providing an affordable alternative to private health insurance;
* Double the apprentice scheme, and commit to government funding 40% of the wage for first-time apprentices across the economy;
* Raise the minimum wage to 10 marks an hour and tie it to inflation.
There is currently no leader of the party. The party announced that it will hold a leadership election, with the electorate being "liberal affiliates and allies" across the country.
