Ezker Anitza (EzAn–IU, Spanish: La Izquierda Plural, literally "Plural Left")[3][4] is the Basque federation of United Left. The party was established in January 2012 after United Left–Greens (EB–B) was disenfranchised as IU's referent in the Basque Country. Isabel Salud is the current General Coordinator.

The Communist Party of Euskadi (EPK-PCE, Basque federation of PCE) is the major member of the coalition.
