Labour Party

The Labour Party (Official French name: Parti Ouvrier) is a socialist political party in the Franco-British Union, and is traditionally the most significant left-wing opposition party. It was establishedfrom the the merger of the British Labour Party and the French Section of the Worker's International (French: Section française de l'Internationale ouvrière, SFIO) in 1947, following the Union Conference in which a permanent political arrangement was created for the post-World War II Franco-British Union. The party has grown more left-wing over the course of the Cold War, as a result of much of the party's social democratic right defecting to the People's Alliance. Along with the Entente Section of the Communist International, it makes up most of the FBU's parliamentary Left Opposition.
