List of major liberal parties considered left

From Wikipedia - Reading time: 7 min

In the 21st century, liberalism is generally considered a centrist or centre-right ideology.[1][2] However, especially in countries whose mainstream political spectrum includes liberals and conservatives but not socialists and social democrats, liberals may be considered left-leaning or left-of-centre as opposed to conservatives. Also, even in countries where socialist political forces exist significantly, some liberal parties have political leftist characteristics.
