The Great Unity Party (Turkish: Büyük Birlik Partisi, BBP) is a far-right Sunni Islamist political party in Turkey, created on 29 January 1993 by Muhsin Yazıcıoğlu, who broke off from the Nationalist Task Party (predecessor of the modern MHP) after a quarrel with Alparslan Türkeş.[5] The BBP's youth wing is the Alperen Hearths.
