Independent Socialist Party (Luxembourg) Explained

The Independent Socialist Party (Luxembourgish; Letzeburgesch: Parti socialiste indépendant), also known as Jean Gremling's Independent Socialist List, was a political party in Luxembourg in the 1970s and 1980s.

History

The party was formed to contest the 1979 elections by Jean Gremling.[1] Running a campaign that accused the Luxembourg Socialist Workers' Party of compromising on socialism, it succeeded in winning a single seat, taken by Gremling.[1]

However, the party lost its seat in the 1984 elections, and subsequently disappeared.
