From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Margrete Auken (born January 6, 1945) is a politician and member of the Danish socialist party Socialistisk Folkeparti (SF). Auken is educated as a priest from the University of Copenhagen, and has been a member of the Danish parliament from October 1979 to December 1990 and from September 1994 to June 2004.

When she was elected as the sole candidate for SF for the European Parliament in 2004, she sparked an uproar in SF by choosing to join the European Green Party - European Free Alliance instead of the European United Left - Nordic Green League without any approval from SF.
