The Libertarian Party, also known as the Libertarian Party UK (LPUK), is a libertarian political party in the United Kingdom. The party believes in having a written constitution for the UK which holds "the individual to be above the State".

The LPUK stands candidates in only England, Wales and Northern Ireland because of a legal agreement with the Scottish Libertarian Party, and was also known as the LPoEWNI (England, Wales and Northern Ireland) so not to mislead voters into thinking it covered the whole of the United Kingdom. According to the agreement, after the Scottish Libertarian Party was statutorily deregistered by the Electoral Commission in November 2022, it could then stand candidates in Scotland. The Scottish Libertarian Party re-registered with the Electoral Commission in January 2023, so once again it can no longer stand candidates in Scotland.
