Left Bloc (Istalia)

The Blocco della Sinistra (Luthorian: Left Bloc), also known as Il Blocco, is a left-wing party founded in August 4603 in Istalia by Pietro Reggio, former astronaut of the Istalian Space Agency. Its official motto is "Senza lotta non c'è futuro" (There's no future without fight).

Il Blocco supports the separation of State and religion, participatory democracy, feminism, LGBT rights, environmentalism, social equality and social welfare.

Political ideology
It was founded with the purpose of representing and defending the interests of the working class against left-wing parties that "have forgotten their roots".

It defends the separation of State and Religion, with most of its members and high representatives being openly atheists. They support the restoration of the Istalian Republic and the elimination of the monarchy. They also position themselves in favor of LGBT rights, igualitarism, feminism and abortion, as well as new forms of energy (reneweable energy).

History
Blocco della Sinistra was founded to cover the political space left by the rest of Istalian political parties, with former astronaut Pietro Reggio announcing the creation of the party to represent those "orphaned" voters, mostly progressist republicans and people disenchanted with the progressist parties in Istalia.

Party organization
The party has one leader, elected by the General Assembly, and one Secretary, elected by the militants. The main legislative organ is the Federal Committee, composed by 11 members, 2 from the militants of each province plus one chosen by the Secretary. They advise the Secretary and decide whatever happens internally in the party, whilst the Secretary has to make the decisions regarding the outside of the party.
