The Left Union for a Clean and Holy Republic (Bulgarian: Ляв съюз за чиста и свята република, romanizedLyav sŭyuz za chista i svyata republika, LSCHSR) was a Bulgarian left-wing nationalist electoral alliance which ran in the July 2021 Bulgarian parliamentary election.

History

[edit]

In May, 2021, former Bulgarian Prime Minister, Zhan Videnov, announced his intention to form a new party called "Left Alternative", justifying his decision by the poor electoral results of the Bulgarian Socialist Party.[4] The party announced its intention to participate in a broad left-wing coalition during the upcoming parliamentary elections.[4]


On the 23d of May, Videnov presented the alliance, composed of the following parties: Bulgarian Progressive Line, the Left Alternative, the Party of the Bulgarian Communists, the Socialist Party "Bulgarian Way", and the more conservative Revival of the Fatherland.[5] Former BSP MP and Videnov ally, Ivan Atanasov, was selected as the alliance's leader, while Videnov assumed the role of organisational secretary.[1]
