Lega Alpina Lumbarda (Lombard Alpine League, LAL) was a left-wing regionalist political party in Italy, based in Lombardy. The party, an alternative to Lega Lombarda–Lega Nord, was led by Elidio De Paoli throughout its existence.
History
[edit]The party was founded in 1992 by De Paoli, a former blue-collar worker, local leader of the Marxist-Leninist League,[1][2] and municipal councillor for the Greens in Brescia.[3] De Paoli was elected senator both in the 1992 general election (when the party won 2.1% in Lombardy)[4] and the 1994 general election (4.3%).[5]
For the 1996 general election the party joined forces with Alleanza Lombarda Autonomia (a 1989 split from Lega Lombarda, led by Angela Bossi and Pierangelo Brivio, sister and brother-in-law of Umberto Bossi respectively), forming Lega per l'Autonomia – Alleanza Lombarda.
In 2009, Lega Alpina Lumbarda, led by De Paoli, filed lists in some Lombard provincial elections. The list gained everywhere less than 1%.[6]
