We might not have got the results we wanted this year, but what’s clear is that we aren’t Labour-Lite, or the New-Tories.

In the words of Nick Clegg:

We will not define ourselves in relation to the other parties. We are defined by a century and a half of liberal politics. It is not left. It is not right. Not the anti-Tory party, nor the anti-Labour party, nor the anti-politics party. Instead a party of enterprise and fairness; a party which knows we can do more together than we can alone.

We are a liberal and democratic party. And we will stand our ground in the liberal centre of British politics.
