United Consumers

The United Consumers (Consumatori Uniti) is a political party in Italy led by Bruno De Vita.

Since the 2006 general election the party was affiliated to The Union, the centre-left coalition led by Romano Prodi, and in that occasion it took part to a joint list with the Federation of the Greens and the Party of Italian Communists (PdCI) for the Italian Senate.

History

In October 2006 Senator Fernando Rossi, splinter from the Party of Italian Communists, joined the party, but in September 2007 he left it to form his own Citizens' Political Movement. In the same month the party was merged into the Democratic Union of Willer Bordon.

After the dissolution of Democratic Union, the United Consumers formed a joint list known as Anticapitalist List with the PdCI, the Communist Refoundation Party and Socialism 2000 for the 2009 European Parliament election.[1]
