A party in the UK, who are determined to ruin the foundations of which the land is based on, by cheating, decieving and double crossing the British public.

(In Britain) a now largely redundant political party that formerly represented the British working class. Growing out of the Union movement in the late 19th century, it now acts largely as a hobby horse for bored Hampstead housewives, woke activists and careerist politicians.
Rob: hey did you hear that Labour Party activist talk about the pressing need to decolonise the curriculum, promote greater understanding of gender fluidity, and to increase the numbers of black lesbians in STEM?
Alice: yes - I’m sure that will help win back former Labour seats in the north.
Builder: I’m just a tad concerned that an open-door to labourers from Eastern Europe might be suppressing wages and making it harder for me to make a living.
Labour Party activists: shut up racist!
Builder: It’s nothing to do with race - besides eastern Europeans are white.
Labour Party activist: don’t mansplain to me.

A political party historically on the left of centre of politics, recently through the hard work of Tony Blair a right wing Conservative party with even more right wing views.
Lurching from scandal to mistake to deceitfullness the labour party has managed to alienate its large following after the Conservative downfall. Many UK voters are now faced with the dilemma of being faced with two right wing parties , both with leaders distrusted by the public.
The Labour party is now in negotiations with President Bush to make the UK the 51st American state so we can enter military conflicts on their behalf whilst they sit at home eating big macs and watching all 235 channels of cable tv 25 hours a day. Tony Blair and his cabinet feel this is not at all in conflict with the roots of labour and their stance for nuclear disarmament and equality for all

Id rather see Basil Brush in office than the labour party, at least he's funny and more intelligent than Blair and Blush combined. Mind you with Labours broken promise on fox hunting there might be a Basil about to take office

The Australian Labor Party (ALP) is an anachronistic organisation that purports to have a monopoly on social conscience and represent the working classes of Australia.
It is controlled by a caustic mixture of unionist bully boys who make "On the Waterfront" look like "Saturday Night Fever" and casuistic right-wing intellectuals posing as messianic left-wing intellectuals. Both groups share a common vision, namely the manipulation to their own (perhaps pecuniary and/or machavellian)ends of two corresponding strata of the Australian electorate.
One stratum is the worker and disadvantaged who perceives itself to be "abused" by the "boss". It is likely this perception is a hangover from the Australian penal/colonial mind set of "us and them" and may go some way toward explaining the Australian sense of inadequacy on the international political and cultural scene. (cf. sport and Australian supremacy -also consider Mark Twain's report that Sydneysiders were oddly proud of their harbour "ain't she beautiful"? as if they somehow had something to do with the matter, whereas it may be that they felt they had nothing to say about themselves!)
The other stratum are the advantaged who feel guilty for not being born disadvantaged. In a collective attempt to apologise for their sheer good fortune these sons and daughters of the advantaged suspend their intellectual capacity and turn to the ALP to salve their conscience.
The ALP, of course, cannot assuage their angst because it has no more a monopoly on social conscience than any other political organisation. These people quickly forget that it was the ALP who designed the White Australia Policy, reintroduced fees for teriary education during the Dawkins administration, sold out the worker via Keating's "level playing field" giving the Australian worker a whopping 19% rate on their mortgages, and rushed off headlong into the Gulf War when Hawke sent warships without discussing it with parliament.
Labor voters often cannot spell correctly.

The political party that offers fairness, and equality in Australia, and tries to help all Australians, not just he wealthy.
Usually has to clean up the mess the evil Liberal Party has made, as the liberals usually run a state or country into the ground.

How anyone could vote for the liberals is beyond me.
I swear, this country is fucked up, when a man as evil as howard actually wins a 4th term.
What have we become?
