The following quote is taken from the English information section of the party's official website:
We in Liberala partiet (Classical liberal party) are classically minded liberals. We believe in a society where individuals are given power over their own lives. A society that gives priority to the individual, where duty cannot be imposed, and individuals cannot be made victims of a forced collective. Free and sovereign individuals are free to shape their own relationships and associations with other free and sovereign individuals.[4]
The Classical Liberal Party has participated in four general elections for the Swedish Riksdag. Their best result was in the 2018 general elections when the party got 1,504 votes, or 0.02%.[5]
