The National Labor Party is a social democratic and democratic socialist political party in Darmen. It is the major catch-all party of the center-left in Darmeni politics.

History

The National Labor Party was formed by the merger of several regional social democratic and democratic socialist parties prior to the 2036 Darmeni general election in order to better organize the left's electoral campaign. Together with other leftist parties, the NLP was part of the Coalition of the Left and the United Left coalitions prior to contesting the 2049 Darmeni general election on its own.

Voter base

The party has strong ties to Darmen's labor unions.
