Spolu (lit. 'Together') is a Czech centre-right political alliance formed for the 2021 legislative election, composed of the Civic Democratic Party, KDU-ČSL, and TOP 09. As of the 2021 Czech election it governs the Czech Republic in a coalition with the Pirates and Mayors alliance.
History
[edit ]Following the 2020 regional elections, the Civic Democratic Party (ODS), KDU-ČSL and TOP 09 began negotiations about a potential centre-right electoral alliance for the 2021 legislative election.[3]
The ODS leadership agreed to form an alliance with the other parties on 25 October 2020.[4] Two days later party leaders Petr Fiala, Marian Jurečka and Markéta Pekarová Adamová signed a memorandum and announced that ODS, KDU-ČSL and TOP 09 would form an electoral alliance for the next legislative election, with ODS leader Fiala as the alliance's candidate for prime minister.[5] On 11 November 2020, the parties agreed that ODS would nominate the leaders of the election lists in nine regions, KDU-ČSL in three regions, and TOP 09 in two regions.[6] The alliance was known by media as the Three Coalition, but on 9 December 2020 the parties announced that they would run under the name Spolu (lit. 'Together').[7]
Spolu introduced its electoral programme and campaign on 9 December 2020.[8] Ahead of the election, opinion polls suggested that ANO would win, but in an electoral upset Spolu won the highest number of votes, and opposition parties won a majority of seats in the Chamber of Deputies.[9] The opposition parties signed a memorandum agreeing to nominate Spolu leader Petr Fiala for the position of prime minister.[10] On 9 November, President Miloš Zeman formally asked Fiala to form a new government.[11] On 17 November 2021, Fiala introduced Zeman to his proposed cabinet and Zeman agreed to appoint Fiala as the new prime minister on 26 November 2021.[12]
In November 2021, Fiala said he would like to continue with the Spolu coalition into the 2022 Senate and municipal elections.[13] On 14 June 2022, Spolu announced that the coalition would nominate 19 candidates in the senate elections.[14] Spolu also collaborated in municipal elections in some cities and towns, including Prague, Ostrava and Plzeň.[15]
In the 2023 Czech presidential election, Spolu endorsed three candidates: Petr Pavel, Danuše Nerudová, and Pavel Fischer.[16]
On 28 October 2024, party leaders signed a memorandum and announced that ODS, KDU-ČSL and TOP 09 would continue as an electoral alliance for the 2025 legislative election.[17]
