As a member of the Labour Party-MMM alliance, it had four Members of Parliament directly elected in the general election of 2014. The party is led by Navin Ramgoolam. Founded in 1936, the Labour Party remains the oldest major political party in the Republic, and was in power from 1948 to 1982, from 1995 to 2000, and from 2005 to 2014. From 1983 to 1990 it formed part of a coalition government as a minority partner. HistoryThe Labour Party was founded in 1936. Its founding principles mirrored the British Labour Party, with the vision and determination to protect workers' rights and freedoms, including compensation, and a higher wage rate with paid leave. The movement was encouraged by 55 conferences held by the leaders of the party throughout the country. Among other goals were the initial resolutions to obtain suffrage for the working class, representation in the Legislative Council, the organization of a Department of Labour, the prohibition of capitalist exploitation of sugar plantations, as well as the overall implementation of socialist values among Mauritian government agencies. The founders of the Mauritian Labour Party were Maurice Cure, Jean Prosper, Mamode Assenjee, Hassenjee Jeetoo, Barthelemy Ohsan, Samuel Barbe, Emmanuel Anquetil, Godefroy Moutia, and Pandit Sahadeo. Cure served as President of the Party until he was forced to resign in 1941, at which point Anquetil took over.[1][2] Anquetil died in December 1946,[3] and Guy Rozemont became the leader of the party until his death in 1956 at the age of forty-one. The arrival of Seewoosagur Ramgoolam in 1958 marked an important step in the history of the party. He was in favour of an independent Mauritius within the Commonwealth of Nations. Following the victory of the Labour Party in the general election of 1967, a constitutional agreement was made in Parliament following numerous conferences in Lancaster and London, United Kingdom. The coalition government, including the Labour Party, Independent Forward Block & Muslim Action Committee sealed the pact for Independence. Then Labour Party, now led by Ramgoolam, along with Veerasamy Ringadoo, Satcam Boolell, and Harold Walter, in coalition with the Muslim Action Committee led by Abdool Razack Mohamed and the Independent Forward Block led by the Bissoundoyal brothers, Lall Jugnauth and Anerood Jugnauth, pushed a motion in the Legislative Council to provide for an independent country to be declared on March, 12th 1968. The Labour Party joined forces with the Parti Mauricien Social Démocrate (PMSD) of Gaetan Duval in 1969 to form a coalition government. In December 1976, Labour won only 28 seats out of 70, as opposed to 34 for the Mauritian Militant Movement (MMM) led by Paul Berenger and Harish Boodhoo, but remained in power by forming another alliance with the PMSD. In 1982, however, the MMM won outright and Ramgoolam lost his directly elected parliamentary seat. Anerood Jugnauth of the MSM became Prime Minister. From 1983 through 1995, the Labour Party attracted little electoral support, and in 1984, Satcam Boolell, who had replaced Ramgoolam as party leader, agreed to an electoral alliance with the Militant Socialist Movement, which had broken away from the MMM. In 1995 the Labour Party returned to power with the support of the MMM and Navin Ramgoolam, who had taken over the party leadership in 1991, became Prime Minister. It lost the subsequent legislative election in 2000, however; its coalition with the Mauritian Party of Xavier-Luc Duval secured only 36.6% of the popular vote and eight out of 70 seats. The Labour Party returned to power in the 2005 elections as part of the Alliance Sociale, which won 42 out of 70 seats. In the general election of 2010, the party formed the majority of L'Alliance de L'Avenir, which regrouped the Mauritius Labour Party, the MSM and the PMSD. The Alliance de L'Avenir won the general election with 41 seats against 18 seats for MMM-led L'Alliance du Coeur one seat by the FSM. However, on 6 August 2011 the Alliance broke down, leaving only the Mauritius Labour Party, the PMSD and the Republican Movement (MR) in the government.
