Front Line (political party)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Front Line (Greek: Πρώτη Γραμμή, Proti Grammi) was a Greek neo-fascist party, formed in 1999.
The party was headed by the historian and author of anti-Semitic books Kostas Plevris, who is also a leading Greek Holocaust denier.
Front Line participated in the 1999 European Parliament elections (sharing a slate with the neo-Nazi Golden Dawn party), obtaining 48,532 votes or 0.75 percent of the vote. In the Greek general election of 2000, it took 12,125 votes, or 0.18 percent of the poll.
Apart from Plevris, electoral candidates for the party have included: (in 1999) Panayiota Adonopoulou (Παναγιώτα Αντωνοπούλου), Nikolaos Michaloliakos (Νικόλαος Μιχαλολιάκος), and Michail Arvanitis-Avramis (Μιχαήλ Αρβανίτης-Αβράμης).[1]
The party is now disbanded. Many of its former members have joined the Popular Orthodox Rally, and others participated in the foundation of Patriotic Alliance.
