History

It was banned by the Supreme Court 2009 May, after press reports linked some of its candidates with those of the banned Basque separatist party Batasuna. Days later, on 22 May, the Constitutional Court cancelled the previous decision.[2] The list failed to win any seat in the elections. The goals of the candidature were social justice, full democratic liberties, opposition to discrimination by reason of gender, and the right of self-determination of some of Spain's nationalities. The head of the European Parliament elections list was Alfonso Sastre, a well-known Spanish language playwright. The second candidate on the list is Doris Benegas Haddad, the sister of Spanish Socialist Party politician Txiki Benegas and, at number 10, is Alicia Herminda, a well-known Spanish actress. After the failure in the elections, II disappeared.
