Labor United

Labor United (LUn) is a political party in Gaduridos. It was founded in 3670, when Congressman Don Carter, who was originally elected on the Progressive ticket, left his party over a row with the caucus leadership.

The party describes itself as democratic socialist, and it subscribes to civil libertarianism and green politics. Its long-time leader is Don Carter.

Origins
In 3670, the Progressive caucus of the Gaduridan Congress was invited by the majority Conservative Party to join a government of national unity. Initially, the Progressives were hesitant to reply. Some members of the left-wing of the party were thus disillusioned with the Progressive leadership, and a few ultimately left the organisation altogether. Only one of the 121 Progressive Congressmen left, however – Don Carter.

Carter went on to form the Carter Campaign Committee (CCC) in October that year, which aimed at securing his re-election for Congress, despite not belonging to any major party. As the CCC steadily grew across Gaduridos, the organisation eventually transformed into a political party, under the name Labor United.

Presidential elections
The Labor United is yet to field its own candidates for presidential elections. Traditionally, the party has instead endorsed and campaigned for the candidates of the Progressive Workers of Gaduridos party.
