The party was launched in February 2014 by a qualified group of liberals, including some splinters of the Italian Liberal Party (PLI). Renato Altissimo, Alfredo Biondi, Edoardo Croci (who was appointed president), Enrico Musso, Alessandro Ortis, Carlo Scognamiglio and Giuliano Urbani were among the most notable founding members.[1][2][3]

The Liberals, who presentend themselves to the public during a press conference in March, successfully sought to run in the 2014 European Parliament election within European Choice (SE), a joint list sponsored by the Alliance of Liberals and Democrats for Europe (ALDE) Party.[4][5] The Liberals' Musso stood as candidate for the party within SE in the North-West Italy European Parliament constituency,[6] but was not elected[7] as the list received a mere 0.7% nationally.[8]

gollark: Anyway, I can't actually watch the video because of my poor internet connection here, but generally I don't think long-term and general predictions of the future which aren't just *really vague* come true particularly often.
gollark: But the spiders would disperse quite soon and where would you even get those spiders and they might attack you.
gollark: No, run away.
