Reformist Socialists

Last updated

The Reformist Socialists (Italian : Socialisti Riformisti, RS) were a tiny social-democratic political party in Italy, later a faction within The People of Freedom.

The party was founded in 2006 by Donato Robilotta and other members of the New Italian Socialist Party (NPSI), who wanted the party to leave the House of Freedoms. Donato Robitotta was a candidate of the Rose in the Fist for the 2006 general election.

After the election the party reapproached itself with NPSI and finally decided to join to Silvio Berlusconi's The People of Freedom. [1]
