Lega Lombardo Veneta

Lega Lombardo Veneta (Lombard Venetian League, LLV) is a right-wing social-democratic political party active in Northern Italy.

The party, which was founded in 2008 by Roberto Fornili, proposes federal reform, autonomy for the regions and libertarian principles.[1]

In the 2009 provincial elections the party obtained a remarkable result for a new party: 1.1% in Milan, 1.6% in Monza, 1.6% in the Lecco, 0.9% in Brescia, 1.1% in Verona and 1.1% in Venice (where it was in alliance with the Italian-nationalist Tricolour Flame).[2]

In 2011 the party formed an alliance with Future and Freedom and gained 1.3% of the vote in the province of Vercelli.[3] In the 2012 municipal elections the party had a breakthrough in Rovato, where it garnered 12.4% of the vote,[4] but, apart from that, had dim results.
