FIRST LABOUR GOVERNMENT

Motion Text

That this House celebrates the centenary of the world's first ever national Labour government, formed on 23rd April 1904 in Melbourne, Australia, which gave hope to Labour parties across the globe to seek power on behalf of working people, and also began a century of Labour advancing social justice and equality; pays warm tribute to the Australian Labour Party for its inspiration and friendship over the past one hundred years; and looks forward to developing and building upon existing links for the next century.
