I removed a major part of the article twice, as I consider the text based on incorrect statements:

"The alliance builds upon cooperation between these parties within the European Parliament dating back to 1995." is incorrect. These parties have bonds going back decades.
"NGL's component parties have roots in socialism (the Norwegian and Danish parties) and communism (the Swedish and Finnish parties)." - the dichotomy of socialism vs. communism is incorrect. Communism is a socialist ideology and all the five parties have some sort of past in the communist tradition.
"Accordingly, rather than align with the pan-European Green Party or their Greens-EFA parliamentary group, NGLA's member parties sit in the European Parliament as part of the larger European United Left - Nordic Green Left group." - actually the Danish SF MEP has joined the Green group. Moreover, NGLA has nothing to do with EU structures.
" As NGLA is based purely in the Nordic countries, it does not meet the requirement of having members originating in one-quarter of European Union member-states and therefore cannot be recognized by the EU as a legal pan-European political party.[1]" - NGLA is not a political party, and is not intended to be one.
