We are a driving force in European politics, with representation
in the European Parliament since 1984
We want to protect our climate and environment for the generations to come.
We defend a society where every person has the right to speak up.
We fight for a true democracy where the public and the media
are able to control those in power.
We want to build a Europe that reduces poverty because everybody deserves a fair chance.
We believe the economy must serve the people, not the other way around.
We believe in a society that invests in public services and creates strong communities.
We support a democratic Europe of the peoples, regions and historic small nations where the right to self-determination is respected.
We want a society with decent paying jobs and warm homes to come home to.
A society where every person should be free to be who they want without discrimination.
