About the Party

Alternative Linke (AL) (= Alternative Left)
La Gauche (The Left)
La Sinistra (The Left)

The AL/La Gauche was founded in 2010 as a new left force outside of the established parties. On the one hand there is overlap with the PdA/PST-POP, on the other hand the party encompasses several left-alternative groups, including a few "Alternative Listen" (Alternative Lists) in the German-speaking part of Switzerland.

The party has seats in the cantonal parliament of Zürich, Schaffhausen and Vaud, but not in the federal parliament.

The logo in the German-speaking part consists of the black inscription "AL" with a red square in the upper right corner, and the full party name in the two other languages underneath, all on a white background.

The logo in the French-speaking part consists of the black inscription "LAGAUCHE" sitting on a red bar, and the full party name in the two other languages underneath, all on a white background.

The logo in the Italian-speaking part consists of the black inscription "LASINISTRA" sitting on a red bar, and the full party name in the two other languages underneath, all on a white background; on the left side there is a red arrow on a white circle.

I have not found any evidence for a flag with the German or the Italian logo. The French logo can be in the center of white flags [1].
