Unity for the Isles (Catalan: Unitat per les Illes, Spanish: Unidad por las Islas, UIB) was a Spanish party alliance formed by PSM–Nationalist Agreement (PSM–EN), Majorcan Union (UM), Republican Left of Catalonia (ERC), Agreement for Majorca (ExM) and The Greens of Menorca (EV–Me) to contest the 2008 general election in the Balearic Islands.[1]

United Left had tried to re-edit the Progressives for the Balearic Islands coalition which had contested the 2004 general election,[2][3] but the PSM–EN choose instead to form an alliance with UM, ERC and ExM, which had announced their will to field a joint list of candidates.[4]

gollark: The great thing about bioweapons is that commercial DNA printing is quite cheap, and apparently mostly doesn't even defend against known sequences for e.g. smallpox (not that blacklisting works, really), and I believe there are papers describing how you can conveniently resurrect Spanish flu and such.

gollark: Wow, I am typoey today.
