Unified – Alternative for Patriots (Czech: Jednotní – alternativa pro patrioty) is a political party in the Czech Republic. It was founded by three MPs from Freedom and Direct Democracy (SPD) after they left the party. The party participated in the 2019 European Parliament election on the "Alternative for the Czech Republic" list.
The party is vocally opposed to government restrictions related to the COVID-19 pandemic. MPs Volný and Bojko have refused to wear protective facial wear in the Chamber of Deputies on several occasions, and Volný was arrested on 7 March 2021 at a demonstration against government measures, for failing to observe hygiene laws. Volný also received media attention after asserting on social media that COVID-19 was an "artificial biological weapon" being deliberately spread from aeroplanes.
