Centre left

In politics, the centre left of the political spectrum roughly comprises European social democrats or democratic socialists, progressive liberals, greens and reformed communists. Centre Left supporters accept the capitalist market economy but advocate a mixed economy with a significant public sector and also a private sector. Centre Left policies tend to favour limited state intervention in the economy in what is seen as the public interest.
