United (Sardinia)

United (Sardinian: Unidos) is a centre-right and separatist[1] political party in Sardinia.

The party was launched by Mauro Pili, a long-time member of Forza Italia/The People of Freedom (FI/PdL) and former President of Sardinia (1999, 2001–2003), in November 2011.[2] Originally a faction within the PdL, Unidos soon became a party upon Pili's exit from the PdL in October 2013.[3]

In the 2014 regional election Pili ran for President and won 5.7% of the vote, while the party obtained 2.8% of the vote and no seats in the Regional Council.[4]

The party is represented in the Chamber of Deputies by Pili, who was elected with the PdL in 2013.
