As a liberal conservative myself I'm not seeing it. I don't see anything remotely 'Cameronian' about the RPP.

You aren't looking.

I've been proposing adapted Tory 'liberal conservative' policy for the past two Senates Smiley Trust me I'd have noticed.

Of course if you want to go down that European ideological route then all the best to you.

I consider myself a liberal conservative or in Canada, a progressive conservative. I know that many of our members share similar ideologies.

Well good. I've been trying to coax conservatives in Atlasia over the ground where I've been standing for some time Smiley

Have you been keeping track of the NE assembly's work?

It certainly is the most sensible form of government. This NE Assembly session is largely based around the ideas of liberal conservatism and progressive reforms.

Yes; and I also understand the Assembly has mixed partisan membership.

The RPP has effective control, essentially because we control the speakership and have the larger alignment. Smiley

     I don't like it, but I find it an acceptable compromise since a party embracing anarcho-capitalism wouldn't go very far.

There's alot to that ideology (particularly eminating from the 'hubs' of Britain and Sweden) you will probably not be too comfortable with. Besides the movement from American Conservatism to European conservatism requires the acceptance of various ideas that we accepted a generation or so back (American Conservatism for me went awry post Nixon/Ford) including reaching an understanding with the welfare state and using it to forumate and act on policy.

It also, as in Europe leaves the 'third' party in Atlasia (the DA) enough room to leapfrog the RPP to being more right wing on economic issues (like the German FDP) But that would be a few elections away at least!

     I don't think I would never get a car that wasn't Japanese-made unless I could afford a Mercedes or BMW or something similar. I probably shouldn't given their history, but I like the quality of their products. Tongue

I was asking the people in the party that are in charge, aka the ACTUAL leadership. Not you, so mind your own business for once.

Aye on the endorsement vote (from the beginning of the thread).

Can we stick to business in this thread. We are at 6 pages in 2 and half hours and some of the discussion in here is just useless crap.

There is an enormous difference to me, though I guess it's like we're playing soccer and you guys are playing baseball. Both sports, both have opposing teams and fans but play by different rules. To me American conservatism only pays lip service to genuine personal liberty; it's too influenced by religion, a rigid morality and is quite statist.

If you want an understanding of the history of British Conservatism check the video link in my sig Grin
