To the Left for Independence (a Manca pro s'Indipendentzia, aMpI) is a separatist and communist[1] political party in Sardinia. Founded in July 2004, the party campaigns mainly for the independence of Sardinia, the adoption of Sardinian language as official and the de-militarization of the island.[2] Some of its members have been accused of terrorism, but there is no evidence that they are actually terrorists.[3]

For the 2009 regional election the party formed a joint list, Independence Union, with the more established Sardinia Nation and other separatist groups,[4] gaining only 0.5% of the vote and no seats in the Regional Council of Sardinia.

In the 2014 regional election the party was the main member of the United Independentist Front,[5][6] whose candidate, aMpI's Pier Franco Devias,[7] won 1.0% of the vote and whose list 0.7%.[8]
