Labour Parties are political organizations that typically represent the interests of workers and promote social justice, economic equality, and public welfare. They often advocate for policies such as higher wages, better working conditions, and expanded social services. The concept originated in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, primarily in response to the needs of the working class. Many countries have their own Labour Parties, with the most notable being the Labour Party in the United Kingdom. These parties usually align with leftist or center-left ideologies and participate in democratic elections to influence government policies and legislation.
