In this context I assume liberal party member.

But more generally tho its a shame the word has lost its original meaning.

It hasn't, it refers to neoliberals. The massively dominant ideology with near total hegemony in the anglosphere.

Neoliberals couple some elements of classical liberalism with some rather courageous (in the yes minister sense) beliefs about the magic of free market capitalism and a diminished role for the state.
