After a phenomenal and social campaign, the Belgian Workers' Party (PTB-PVDA) has confirmed its progress throughout the country, with results ranging from 5.6% in Flanders to over 13,5 in Brussels and in Wallonia. The genuine left thus sends 12 members to the federal parliament, 1 member to the European Parliament, 11 members to the Brussels Parliament, 4 members to the Flemish Parliament and 10 members to the Walloon Parliament. In addition, the PTB will have 5 senators. The number of PTB parliamentarians therefore increases from 8 to 43. At the national level, the PTB has become the 5th largest party among the 12 parties with elected representatives.
