The Reformist Movement (French: Mouvement Réformateur, MR) is a Belgian French-speaking liberal party, favoring a united Belgium. The party is part of the current Federal Government coalition, it was also part of the governing coalition in the Walloon Region and in the Brussels-Capital Region until the 2004 regional elections. As of the 2007 general election, the MR is the largest Francophone political formation in Belgium.
The MR is a tightly knit alliance between three French-speaking liberal parties, the liberal PRL, the regionalist FDF and the progressive Christian Democratic MCC, and the German-speaking liberal party, the Party for Freedom and Progress.[1] The label PRL isn't used anymore, the three other parties still use their own names. The MR is member of Liberal International and the European Liberal Democrat and Reform Party.
The ideology of the MR is a mix of free-market liberalism, and recently of a more social liberalism.[citation needed]
