The June Movement (Danish: JuniBevægelsen) was a Danish left Eurosceptic political organisation founded 23 August 1992. It took its name from the referendum on the Maastricht Treaty that took place in Denmark in June of that year. The movement was a member of the European political party EUDemocrats - Alliance for a Europe of Democracies.
The June Movement acknowledged Denmark's membership of the European Union, but opposed the process of tighter European integration including the Lisbon Treaty, and in general the movement wanted the EU to deal with only cross-border issues such as environmental and trade policies. The movement participated in elections for the European Parliament, but neither in local elections nor in elections for the Parliament of Denmark.
In 2009, the movement lost its representation in the European Parliament and disbanded on 5 September 2009.[5]

Oddly, the JuniBevægelsen (JB), a Danish Euro‐skeptic party which only competed at the supranational level displays more agreement on the L‐R dimension that on European integration.

That's nonsense," ripostes Jens Peter Bonde, a leading anti-euro campaigner from the left-wing June Movement.

The leader of the Left-wing June Movement, Jens-Peter Bonde, said the outcome of the vote had nothing to do with the Danish character.
