Progress and Future of Ceuta (Spanish : Progreso y Futuro de Ceuta), PFC) was a political party established as a grouping of electors ahead of the 1991 Spanish local elections in the city of Ceuta by the then-city's mayor Francisco Fraiz Armada, and was composed by independents and Spanish Socialist Workers' Party (PSOE) disenchanted members. [1] The party accessed government for a first term in 1991 with the support of the United Ceuta (CEU) party, then in 1995 under Basilio Fernández López—to become the first Mayor-President of Ceuta—with the support of both CEU and PSOE. [2] [3] The party would lose all of its parliamentary representation in the 1999 Ceuta Assembly election and would disband shortly thereafter.
