Civil liberties are the foundation of a free society in which you are able to fulfil your potential.
Liberal Democrats are protecting your rights and restoring hard-won freedoms. That’s why we have:
Scrapped the expensive and unnecessary ID cards system proposed by Labour
Ended the permanent storing DNA of innocent people
Stopped children being fingerprinted in schools without parental consent
Restored the right to protest outside Parliament
Reformed bureaucratic criminal record checks for people who want to volunteer
Banned wheel-clamping on private land
Stopped the Conservatives from getting rid of the Human Rights Act
