Independent Liberty

The Independent Liberty Alliance (ILA) was a right-libertarian to left-libertarian political alliance created for the presidential campaign of Joris Jansen and Seth Woods in the June 2021 Doggerland Presidential Election. It was created on June 19, 2021 by Joris Jansen and Seth Woods to promote individual liberty and libertarian unity. In the spirit of libertarian unity, Joris Jansen and Seth Woods decided to run as Independents, though they would still secure the endorsements of the Reform Party, the Libertarian Party, and Free & Equal.

The Independent Liberty Alliance would find success in the first round of the June 2021 Presidential Election on June 25, 2021, with ILA candidate Joris Jansen earning 27.5% of the vote, narrowly losing to Rune Tien-Liong at 32.5%. ILA would continue onto the second round on June 29, 2021, earning 43.9% of the vote, but losing to Rune Tien-Liong and Avery Wagers of the Forward Presidential Alliance with 56.1% of the vote. Rune Tien-Liong was re-elected to their position as President and Avery Wagers would become the new Vice President.

In September of 2021, Independent Liberty returned once more in the form of Independent Liberty (IL), an electoral list aiming to elect libertarian-leaning Independents to the National Assembly. It was formed by former Reform Party deputy leader, Enrico McPartland, and former leader of the Vikingland Progressive Libertarians, Taliah Gobar. Candidates that appeared on the Independent Liberty electoral list had no allegiance to any parties and were not beholden to a manifesto or platform, so they could vote as they pleased in the National Assembly. Independent Liberty first appeared in the September 2021 Doggerland legislative elections, earning 7 seats with 6.3% of the vote.
