Politics of Greece Political parties Elections

The Voice of Logic - Afroditi Latinopoulou (Template:Lang-el, FL) is a far-right, ultranationalist political party in Greece. It was established in 2023 by Afroditi Latinopoulou, a lawyer and former tennis athlete.

The party was originally founded as "Homeland" (Template:Lang-el), but was excluded from the May 2023 Greek legislative election by the Supreme Court due to a dispute over the name and symbol of the Patriotic Force for Change (PATRIDA) party, to which Latinopoulou had previously belonged. The party was subsequently renamed and took part in the snap June 2023 Greek legislative election, receiving 0.43% of the vote. In the 2024 European Parliament election, it received just over the electoral threshold of 3%, electing its leader Afroditi Latinopoulou as an MEP.

Ideology

The party leader has repeatedly sparked controversy with her views on womanhood, victim-blaming, and human rights, which many Greek media outlets have condemned as hate speech. A notable incident occurred in 2022 when she was banned from running with New Democracy after making fatphobic remarks about Greek TV presenter Danai Barka. In 2021, in a similar controversial incident she compared homosexuality to pedophilia.

Although the party's manifesto lacks information on economic policy, Latinopoulou's ideology is often described as nationalist and far-right, a label she rejects. She advocates for anti-abortion rights, opposes LGBTQ rights, and has expressed transphobic and anti-immigration views, repeatedly calling for the borders to be closed. She expressed her desire to work with other European far-right leaders, including Marine Le Pen or Giorgia Meloni.

On the 2023 Israel-Hamas War, the party supported Israel and condemned the October 7 attack as an attack on Western civilisation, though Latinopolou later emphasized that both sides should respect the rules of war, particularly considering children. The party also condemned the 2024 Iranian strikes on Israel.

The party condemned the court ban on the Spartans political party contesting the 2024 European Parliament election in Greece.

In June 2024, Latinopolou was mentioned in the list of the 23 most controversial new MEPs in European Parliament, compiled by Politico.
