Democracy and Freedom (Catalan:Democràcia i Llibertat, DiL) was anelectoral alliance inCatalonia established to contest the2015 Spanish general election. It was formed byDemocratic Convergence of Catalonia (CDC),Democrats of Catalonia (DC) andReagrupament (RI.cat).

History

[edit]

After the2015 Catalan regional election had seenDemocratic Convergence of Catalonia (CDC) andRepublican Left of Catalonia (ERC) teaming up into theJunts pel Sí alliance, speculation arose on the future of such alliance for other electoral contests and on whether it would be maintained ahead of the upcoming2015 Spanish general election scheduled for 20 December under a "super-creative formula".[3] On 30 October 2015, it was confirmed that they both parties would be standing in separate lists but with "shared manifestos", as ERC's refusal to accept regional presidency minister and government spokespersonFrancesc Homs as the leading candidate as well as CDC's aims to control the future parliamentary group put down any prospects of a full-fledged electoral alliance.[4][5]

On 4 November, it was unveiled that CDC was in talks withDemocrats of Catalonia (DC) to form a joint list for the general election.[6][7] On 6 November 2015, the alliance was made public and announced to include CDC, DC andReagrupament (RI.cat) under the "Democracy and Freedom" label,[8] with Francesc Homs as its leading candidate.[9] The party memberships of both CDC and DC ratified the decision with a support of 84% and 78%, respectively.[10][11]

On 9 May 2016, CDC announced its intention to contest the2016 Spanish general election on its own, choosing not to renew the alliance with DC and RI.cat, thus bringing the coalition to an end.[12][13] DC and RI.cat subsequently decided not to contest the general election, citing the failure in building up a "broad alliance" of pro-independence parties as their main reason.[14]
