The meaning of “liberal” is a bit different in Europe, than in USA.

For example - “a conservative liberal” sounds silly in America, whereas in Europe it would be a person with typically US Republican views - in favour of free-economy (classical liberal, e.g Adam Smith) and socially conservative (religion, family, tradition, patriotism, etc.).
