[Filuwaúrdjan]

Been a while since we've had one of these threads. I guess that most people will base their's on dodgy and ill-informed wikipedia articles, but, anyway...

As you will, very quickly as well, note, I'm a total SI hack. Sorry. I do actually like some of the smaller parties in some of these countries as well o/c.

Europe first...

Britain: Labour Party*, Co-operative Party
Northern Ireland: SDLP, PUP, APNI. My least favourite party there is currently (suprisingly enough) the UUP.
Ireland: Labour
France: Plural Left rather than the PS on it's own. There are several reasons for this...
Germany: SPD. Least favourite major (?) party is the FDP.
Benelux: Socialists in Belgium, Luxembourg, PvdA in Netherlands.
Scandinavia: Labour in Norway, Social Democrats in Sweden, Denmark, Finland, Alliance in Iceland.
Italy: DS; would have been PCI before the '90's.
Austria: SPÖ
Hungary: Socialists (not exactly a big fan of the party, but look at the alternative. Christ...)
Slovakia: erm... Smer... I guess... though their choice of coalition partners is... er... um... how shall we say... a little disturbing? um... er... screw this... move to the Czech Republic until things improve.
Czech Republic: CSSD
Poland: ideally the non-SLD parts of the new leftish alliance. But the SLD parts when this is not an option.
Baltics: generally Social Democrats, except in Latvia where I'd vote for one of them Russian minority parties.
Former Yugoslavia: Democratic Party in Serbia (DS not DSS), Social Democrats in Slovenia, Croatia, one of the many parties with the words "socialist" or "social democratic" in their name in Montenegro (don't know enough about any to comment further really...), various Social Democratic parties in Bosnia & Hercegovina, Social Democrats in Macedonia.
Albania: see Montenegro
Spain: PSOE
Portugal: PS
Switzerland: SP-PS
Malta: Labour
Greece: PASOK...
Bulgaria: Socialists
Romania: Social Democrats
Moldova: Communists (!)
Ukraine: Socialists
Belarus: Emigrate!
Russia: Emigrate!
Turkey: DTP. CHP (despite everything) where DTP don't stand.

Probably forgotten somewhere. Apologies.

*there are actually a handful of Labour candidates who I wouldn't have voted for in 2005. Won't name them, but as a clue for one; "Roger from Birmingham"...

I know it's fun to provoke left-wingers by claiming to be a Nazi, but they're not really right-winged the way you are...you know.
