The Portuguese Social Democratic Party.

as well as their Brazilian equivalent. Brazilian elections are fairly confusing with the three important presidential candidates in the last election coming from the Workers' Party, the Brazilian Social Democracy Party and the Brazilian Socialist Party.

The Progress Party - racist pseudo-Libertarians
Could you elaborate on why you think they are racist? Do SD, DF, and PS also qualify as such for you If not, what is the difference between these parties and Frp in regards to racism? I know about their economic right-wing views, but I haven't noticed any remarkable racist stances. I'm genuinely interested (though this is probably slightly off-topic).

I think Politicus is refering to a Danish party (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Progress_Party_%28Denmark%29) , rather than the Norwegian one, which is described as "quasi-libertarian xenophobes turned generic Conservative and populist." :-) It still exists, but is more important historically, as the predecessor of DF. As the predessor of DF it had and have many shared views, though with a stronger focus on lower taxes rather than less foreigners.
