The Christian People's Party, Faroese Progress and Fisheries Party (Faroese: Kristiligi Fólkaflokkurin, Føroya Framburðs- og Fiskivinnuflokkur, KFFFF), generally known as the Christian People's Party (Faroese: Kristiligi Fólkaflokkurin, KF), was a political party in the Faroe Islands.
The party was established in 1954 by dissidents from the People's Party, and was originally known as the Progress Party (Framburðsflokkurin). In the 1958 elections it won a single seat in the Løgting,[2] taken by Kjartan Mohr. The party retained its single seat in elections in 1962, 1966, 1970 and 1974,[2] with Mohr remaining its sole MP.
Prior to the 1978 elections it merged with the Fisheries Party to become the Progress and Fisheries Party (Framburðs- og Fiskivinnuflokkurin). The new party won two seats, retaining both in the 1980 elections.[2] In 1984 it adopted its final name, again retaining its two seats in the Løgting in the 1984 elections.
The party won two seats in elections in 1988, 1990 and 1994. However, it lost both seats in the 1998 elections and subsequently folded.
