`  :As also Itanesco pointed the NPSI was a social-democratic party. I say ``was`` as it is a former political party, as it was merged into the PdL in March and that many of its core members had left in 2007 in order to join to the left wing Socialist Party. The NPSI has been an ally of the centre-right (but is the German SPD centre-right because it is an steady ally of the CDU in many states and currently also in Berlin?), but it was not a centre-right party and also Forza Italia contained a large group of lefists, making it more a centre-left party that a centre-right one from an European perspective. :I don't see any reason for labelling the NPSI as social-democratic and I perfectly agree with Itanesco's edit, that's why I reverted Miacek's rollback. This is a small party and not a big deal, but I hope that Miacek won't matter if we describe this party correctly as a social-democratic party. Moreover the article explaines everything about the NPSI's alliances (anyway in many regional/municipal contexts the party was part of the centre-left).   `
