The Big Left (BL) is a political party in the Second Cool Server Republic that was formed on 17 March 2024 after the CCC-DPP meeting would see the integration of the CCC into the DPP in exchange for economic policy shifts towards the left. As of 22 April 2024 there are 5 members of the party, making it the largest leftist party by member count.
== Political views ==
The party follows a doctrine based on socialist, pro-worker, internationalist, secular (anti-gerdist), egalitarianist (including feminism and economical equality) and pacifist ideas and beliefs, protesting expanding the Cool Server Armed Forces, reducing women's rights, privatization and favoring the elite. The party is against the Shitterdwellen and Romanian regimes. Former CCC members brought Marxism and communism into the party which is in opposition to the current revolutionary socialist ideas the party promotes 
== History ==
After the CCC agreed to a merger with the DPP, the party's central leadership, after a round of voting, decidede to rename it to Big Left, as it now encompassed broader leftist beliefs. 
In the 20 March election, the party got 13 out of 100 seats in parliament, leading to them joining the TWP and UGDP in a majority coalition. The party left towards the end of Taff's term, however, in protest against his authoritarian actions. 
In the April 2024 election, the party fared badly, only managing to secure 8 seats in Parliament, most of which were from Tafland. Despite this, they once again joined the UGDP in a coalition together with their newly formed ideological enemy, the CDP, creating a large and notably inefficient coalition. gerd had promised Oscar that he would be given the position of Prime Minister during the latter half of the presidency, from 15 April to the end of the month. Indeed, Oscar became PM on 15 April, but was controversial for his reformed cabinet which almost fully excluded CDP members and prioritized BL members, as well as his inactivity as Prime Minister. As a result, Oscar became the first president to be impeached after reaching a 2/3 majority in parliament. Oscar was, due to disconfidence in his leadership, ousted from the party by Nge and his supporters, who instead became party leader with Chester Pansire remaining as Deputy Party Leader.
After the 20 April election, the BL won 22 out of 105 seats in parliament, which was an uptick from their previous election results but not enough to form a majority coalition, as the UGDP instead formed one with CDP. As a response to the CDP, and thus, capitalist-led coalition, the BL formed the Bigger Left Opposition (BLO) together with fellow leftist parties PSRP and UPLP, in order to oppose the capitalist government.
