Write for Us

Liberal Review welcomes strong pitches from writers who can bring reporting discipline, clear argument and respect for the reader. We are interested in ideas that sharpen political understanding, not copy that merely echoes the loudest line of the day.

  • Clear routes for readers, contributors, supporters or partners.
  • Simple navigation into the adjacent pages that answer the next question.
  • Copy built for action, trust and a cleaner reading experience.

What makes a strong pitch

Good pitches arrive with a clear argument, a reason the piece matters now, a sense of who it is for and an explanation of why you are the right person to write it.

What makes a strong pitch

Good pitches arrive with a clear argument, a reason the piece matters now, a sense of who it is for and an explanation of why you are the right person to write it.

We respond best to proposals that show original thinking, strong subject knowledge and a practical awareness of how a reader will move through the piece.

Clear pathways

These pages are written to move readers quickly to the next useful destination rather than trapping them in generic site copy.

Visible trust signals

Public standards, contact routes and related guidance stay easy to find because credibility should feel structural, not ornamental.

A stronger reader journey

Every key page is linked into the broader site so people can move from a question to the answer that actually helps.

Formats we commission

Depending on the brief, that may include opinion, analysis, explainers, archive reflections, comment on party politics, policy argument and issue-led features.

We are especially interested in writing that helps readers understand liberal politics in Britain through public services, democratic reform, rights, local power, Europe and political strategy.

Before you send

Please read our Editorial Policy, browse recent work in Analysis and Opinion, and include links to relevant previous work where possible.

If you are writing with a deadline, say so. If the piece touches a conflict of interest, disclose it early.

Pitch with clarity

Send a concise idea, why it matters now, the angle you want to take and any timing we need to know about. We will review and respond with the right next step.

Useful next stops include Newsletters, Analysis, Topics and Contact when you need a direct route.
