Ideology
Left Alliance party program adopted by the 5th Party Congress 16 June 2007: The fundamental values of Left Alliance are equality, freedom and sustainable development. Democracy must be strengthened. Democracy must be stronger than the power of capital. Challenging the global capitalism. Getting world into solidarity and stop Finnish polarisation. Freedom and the right to work and income for all people. Environmentally conscious Finland.
Some in the party accept the EU and others reject it. The younger generation is more pro-EU than the older.
