The Party of New Liberals (Greek: Kόμμα των Nεοφιλελευθέρων) was a shortly lived liberal political party in Greece.
The party was founded by Constantine Mitsotakis in 1977. It took part in only one election, that of 1977, where it obtained 1.08% of the vote and two seats in the Hellenic Parliament (the other seat being filled by Pavlos Vardinoyannis).
The New Liberals merged into the New Democracy party in 1978.
Famous quotes containing the words party and/or liberals:
“I recommend to you, in my last, an innocent piece of art: that of flattering people behind their backs, in presence of those who, to make their own court, much more than for your sake, will not fail to repeat, and even amplify, the praise to the party concerned. This is of all flattery the most pleasing, and consequently the most effectual.”
—Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
“The liberals can understand everything but people who don’t understand them.”
—Lenny Bruce (1925–1966)
