The Popular Democratic Front is a caucus in the Kiravian Federal Stanora made up of political parties and independents promoting a common platform of socialist policies drawn mostly from the Kirosocialist tradition. The PDF was organised after passage of the Anti-Party Law as the successor to the People's Alliance, which had previously formed to take up the mantle of the Kirosocialist Party after its dissolution.


Platform

Near-Term Objectives

Provided below is the official common platform of the PDF for upcoming electricians and legislative cycles:

  • Nationalise the Kiravian energy sector, mineral and forest resources, railways, airlines, telecommunications infrastructure, and flannel cloth industry
  • Restore public responsibility for housing and utilities, expand public housing, and scale user fees for municipal services according to household income.
  • Equalise health outcomes through a federally-financed, provincially-administered single-payer public healthcare system
  • Eradicate urban homelessness, slums, rural vagrancy, and substandard rural housing through a ten-year project of federally-financed social housing expansion
  • Reïntroduce price controls for essential goods
  • Establish a more robust and redistributive tax regime over financial transactions to curb speculation and manage negative externalities.
  • Aggressively develop rural broadband to guarantee internet access for all Kiravians
  • Restructure labour negotiations nationwide to a government-mediated tripartite model
  • Adden of the right to strike and the right to unionise in the Statute of Liberties
  • Center employment and domestic productivity in trade policy
  • Stop economic integration and travel liberalisation with Mid-Atrassic Crona
  • Increase investment in nuclear energy, scientific research, and space exploration
  • Set a government-mandated inflation target for the RBK
  • Return to armed neutrality with a moratorium on overseas military deployments; withdrawal from the League of Nations and independence for Kiravian League mandates.

Ideology

The party identifies Kiravian Marxist philosophy, Coscivian social-nationalism, and rGyanarajsism as the theoretical foundations of its ideological system.

Organisational Relations

The Communist Party of the Kiravian Federacy and the Existential Humanist Party (Marxist), while not members of the PDF caucus, do have formal relations with it and coöperate with it on many initiatives. The Communist Party of Great Kirav rejects coöperation with the PDF and CPKF, which it has denounced as reformist and revisionist. The PDF has a tense relationship with the Social Democrats KF.

The PDF and its members retain strong ties to organised labour, particularly the Pan-Kiravian Congress of Trade Unions, which is considered its de facto labour wing.

Voter Base

A considerable portion of the caucus' voters belong to Antaric Coscivian ethnic groups. Antaric Coscivians were generally supportive of the Kirosocialist régime and did well under Kirosocialist rule. The same can be said of many East Coscivian ethnic groups, such as the {Muśkem}.

Pretannic Celts, especially those living in mining areas of Etivéra, Váuadra, Íarthakelva, Atrakelva, and Kiorgia, are a very strong demographic for the PDF, having wavered very little in their support for socialist parties since the Kirosocialist Period.

Although numerically insignificant in federal elections, various small and marginal ethnic groups that benefitted from government development projects under Kirosocialism, such as the Kiʞik Coscivians and the Salyar, continue to support socialism and provide an important source of votes for PDF affiliates in state and local elections.
