Labour coalition : ウィキペディア英語版 | Labour coalition
Labour was represented in the Northern Ireland peace process by a loose coalition of left wing and labour groups, including Militant Tendency (forerunners of the Irish Socialist Party), the Newtownabbey Labour Party and the British and Irish Communist Organisation.〔(''Left Unity in Ireland'', Socialist Democracy )〕 The coalition was formed to stand in the 1996 Northern Ireland Forum elections. It was listed in the enabling legislation simply as "Labour".〔(Northern Ireland (Entry to Negotiations, etc) Act 1996 which lists the party as "Labour" )〕 The coalition gained only 6,425 votes (0.85% of the total), winning no seats, but as the tenth most successful grouping in the election, it was entitled to two "top-up" seats on the Forum.〔(The 1996 Forum Elections and the Peace Process ), ARK〕 The seats were taken by the first two named on the Regional List of Candidates, Malachi Curran and Hugh Casey.〔(The 1996 Forum Elections: Regional List of Candidates ) ARK - Access Research Knowledge〕 Both were former Social Democratic and Labour Party (SDLP) councillors.〔 The coalition split shortly after the election. Mark Langhammer of the Newtownabbey Labour Party, originally the leader of the group, severed his connection with it, and Malachi Curran replaced him as nominating representative for Labour, notice being posted in the ''Belfast Gazette'' of 16 August 1996.〔(Commons debates, 6 December 1996 )〕 Curran represented Labour in the talks that led to the Good Friday Agreement in 1998. ==References==
