The GPS is the biggest opposition
party in Switzerland, having 12 seats in the 200-seat lower chamber of the Swiss
Parliament (Nationalrat = National Council). The GPS is a left environmentalist
party. The logo shows a sunflower and usually incorporates the party short name
in the respective language.
The flag is green, showing the party logo (sunflower) in white with pale
green shadow in the upper hoist, and also in the lower fly; between the two
sunflowers there is the diagonal inscription of the party name in three
languages (German, French, Italian), also in white with pale green shadow [1].
