The United Left (Greek: Ενωμένη Αριστερά, Enomeni Aristera in Greek) was an electoral union formed between the Communist Party of Greece, Communist Party of Greece (Interior) and the United Democratic Left (EDA) to contest the 1974 Greek legislative election. The UL took 9.47% of the vote and won eight seats.
Famous quotes containing the words united and/or left:
“Why doesn’t the United States take over the monarchy and unite with England? England does have important assets. Naturally the longer you wait, the more they will dwindle. At least you could use it for a summer resort instead of Maine.”
—W.H. (Wystan Hugh)
“when this life is from the body fled,
To see it selfe in that eternall Glasse,
Where time doth end, and thoughts accuse the dead,
Where all to come, is one with all that was;
Then living men aske how he left his breath,
That while he lived never thought of death.”
—Fulke Greville (1554–1628)
