Uncommon card · No. 141359

Vooruit (Dutch pronunciation: [voːrˈœyt] , lit. 'Forward') is a Flemish social democratic political party in Belgium. The party was founded following the linguistic split of the unitary Belgian Socialist Party in 1978, which also produced the Francophone Socialist Party. It was formerly known as the Socialist Party (1978–2001: Socialistische Partij, SP) and subsequently "Socialist Party Alternative" (2001–2021: Socialistische Partij Anders, SP.A) until 2021, when its current name was adopted. From December 2011 to September 2014, the party was part of the Di Rupo Government, along with its Francophone counterpart. In 2020, it re-entered federal government as part of the De Croo Government. The party has been a part of the Flemish Government several times.
