Ontem na Dinamarca

As eleições legislativas foram ganhas tangencialmente por uma coligação liderada pelo Partido Social-Democrata, e que integra o Partido Social Liberal, o Partido Socialista do Povo e a Aliança Vermelho-Verde. Enquanto que o primeiro é um partido típico da Internacional Socialista, como o PS por cá, e o segundo é um partido liberal que se tenta posicionar politicamente no centro, quer o Partido Socialista do Povo quer a Aliança Vermelho-Verde posicionam-se claramente à Esquerda:

"Socialist People's Party ideological base is Popular Socialism, inspired by democratic socialism and green politics. The party sees a democratic socialist Denmark as the end goal of its politics. The party is a strong supporter of human rights, the rights of minorities and democracy. An important issue dividing the party is the European Union. Historically the party was highly Eurosceptic. However, during the 1990s, when the EU began to implement policies oriented at regional development, environmental protection and social protection, the SF became more positive about the EU. Currently, this issue is still dividing the party internally."

"The Red-Green Alliance objects clause may be summarized as: creating a socialist Denmark and working for the spread of socialism internationally; unite left-wing cooperation and left-wing representation in the struggle against capitalism; improve the Danish welfare system; ensure social justice; Spread empathy, and tolerance. The party opposes Danish membership of the European Union and NATO. A unique organizational feature is that the party has no chairman, but is led by an executive committee consisting of 25 members. The members of Parliament pay a part of their parliamentary salary to the party, such that their net income is comparable to that of a skilled worker."
