The Marxist Front is a New Shetlandian neo-marxist party. It was not elected to the Senate in the 2011 Federal Elections.

Ideology
Neo-Marxism is a loose term for various twentieth-century approaches that amend or extend Marxism and Marxist theory, usually by incorporating elements from other intellectual traditions, such as: critical theory, psychoanalysis or Existentialism. The Marxist Front incorporates this ideology in a pacifist, radical left framework. It is a proponent of:
 * A large government
 * Income-dependent taxes
 * Abolition of the army
 * Separation of church and state
 * Gay marriage
 * Abortion
 * No religious schooling
