I can hardly believe that I'm reading that the Liberals shouldn't move their policies to be more acceptable to more voters, as opposed to a purely principled stand.
It's the catch-22 of politics:

If you change your policies to better suit what constituents want, your opponents will say that your party lacks principles.

If you stick to your guns despite widespread opposition, your opponents will say that your party doesn't listen to the will of the electorate.
