What we do:
Supporting Centrism
We are a centrist and moderate organisation. Our members include One Nation Conservatives, Social Liberals and Social Democrats.
Creating new ideas
We create new ideas to improve public services and the economy. This happens by researching issues and finding solutions for the problems that face the UK.
Working together
We work with people from a range of diffrent parties, viewpoints and organisations. This helps to achieve broader support for the issues we campaign on.
Our plan:
Backing businesses
Better public services means investing in better schools and hospitals. This supports people when they need it and creates happier, healthy and well educated workers.
Supporting public services
Backing businesses means making life easier for businesses. It involves simplifying the tax system, creating more new businesses and simplifying regulations. This will grow the economy and it will make more money for public services.
