In Australia, the term Liberalism refers to centre-right economic liberalism, rather than centre-left social liberalism as in some other English-speaking countries such as the U.S.A. Party ideology has therefore been referred to as liberalism, distinct from its meaning in U.S. English-speaking countries, but also as conservatism, which features strongly in party ideology.
Australian conservatism is largely represented by the Coalition, along with Australian liberalism, which refers to free-market economic neoliberalism, rather than centre-left social liberalism as in the United States and United Kingdom.

Queensland in particular, along with Western Australia and the Northern Territory, are regarded as comparatively conservative.
