Die Freiheitlichen (The Freedomites, also translated as The Libertarians)
The Freedomites are a right-wing opposition party (of the German-speaking
populace) in South Tyrol, founded in 1992. In internal politics they are more
conservative (and frequently xenophopic) than the
SVP, and they want the independence of
South Tyrol. Party name and much of the party platform refers to the Austrian
FPÖ (of late Jörg Haider). They currently have 5 seats in the provincial
parliament (Landtag).
The party symbol is a capital letter "F" in white
on a blue-yellow field. This symbol is a reference to a former Austrian FPÖ
symbol, as well as to the colours yellow and blue used by several liberal
parties. The flag is usually used in a vertical, hanging version, and is
yellow-blue with the party symbol in the center [1,2,3,4]; the yellow stripe is
wider than the blue one (about 10:7).
