The Union for Freedom and Prosperity (French reformed: Union pour liberté et prosperité) is an electoral bloc of right-wing parties in Gylias. Formed in 1989, it is the main right-wing electoral bloc in Gylias.

History

The bloc was formed in 1989, in the context of the wretched decade and the dérive au droite. Founding parties FEP and IFP were originally in the National Bloc, but had increasingly moved rightwards and closer to radicalised and populist right-wing formations. They split from the NB in 1989 to establish the new bloc, joined by three other parties — the PP, PFG, and ECM.

The exposure of the neoliberal conspiracy turned public opinion overwhelmingly against the UFP. It barely entered Parliament in 1990, becoming the smallest bloc. It has since remained a marginalised presence, managing to narrowly remain in Parliament but isolated from mainstream politics and strongly unpopular due to its right-wing program and rejection of the Gylian consensus.

It lost all its seats in the 2020 federal election.
