What is LFIT

Labour Friends of Italy (LFIT) is the focal point for connections between the Labour Party and the Italian centre-left political parties.

We have 3 main aims:

1. Promote the exchange of political knowledge and understanding.

We want to encourage a constructive dialogue between British and Italian political parties on a wide range of social and economic issues.

2. Seek active influence on the British and Italian political landscapes.

We are creating a forum for debate through the publication of articles, political analyses and feedback across the British and the Italian systems. The forum will stimulate cultural and intellectual contributions to policy direction and offer new opportunities on both sides.

3. Stimulate political engagement and participation.

We aspire to become a hub for Italians living in the UK who want to be active in the political life of both countries. We also aim to stimulate the involvement of British people in Italian politics.
