Houaniver, during Leeberal govrenments afore the Howard Govrenment, the pairty wis quite interventionist in hits economic policy an maintainit Australie's hie tariffs. At that time, the Leeberals' coalition pairtner, the Kintra Pairty, the aulder o the twa in the coalition (kent as "Naitional Pairty" the nou), had conseederable influence oer the Govrenment's economic policies.

Recently, in the Prime Meenistership o John Howard, the pairty moved til a maire socially conservative policy agenda.
