The formation comprises: Rumen Petkov of ABV, Maya Manolova of Rise Up, Tatyana Doncheva of Movement 21, Georgi Kadiev of Normal State, as well as BSP members who were expelled from the party such as Valeri Zhablyanov.

Maya Manolova announced the coalition’s priorities: upholding peace, protecting working people, the vulnerable, the young, pensioners, SMEs, countering the monopolies and corruption, and an immediate increase in the minimum wage.
