Lega Nord Liguria

Lega Nord Liguria

Lega Nord Liguria (North League Liguria) is a regionalist Italian political party active in Liguria.

It was founded in the 1980s by Bruno Ravera as Ligurian Union ("Uniun Ligure"). The party participated to the 1989 European Parliament election as part of the coalition Lega Lombarda – Alleanza Nord. In 1989-1990 it took part in the process of federating the Northern regionalist parties, ahead of the regional elections. In February 1991 it merged into Lega Nord, taking the current name, and since then it is the regional section of that party in Liguria.

The current national secretary is Francesco Bruzzone. The party counts two deputies, one senator and one regional deputy. Maurizio Balocchi, a member of Lega Nord Liguria who has been also treasurer of Lega Nord since 1993, was appointed Under-Secretary of Legislative Simplification in Berlusconi IV Cabinet.
