The Left was a parliamentary group in the German Bundestag composed of former members of the Die Linke faction.[1] The group was founded or recognized on 2 February 2024, after the official Left parliamentary group was dissolved in December 2023 due to internal conflicts and subsequent split, with the members that joined the BSW forming its own group.[2][3] On 25 February 2025, Die Linke announced that in the 21st Bundestag the faction would be recreated.[4]
Between February 2024 and February 2025, the group had 28 members, including Dietmar Bartsch and Gregor Gysi.[5]
