Political party in the United Kingdom
The Labour Independent Group was an organisation of five former Labour Party Members of Parliament (MPs) in the United Kingdom .
In April 1948, the MP John Platts-Mills organised a petition in support of Pietro Nenni and the Italian Socialist Party , who were in alliance with the Italian Communist Party , counter to Labour Party policy. He was expelled from the party.[1] North Atlantic Treaty , and of them, Lester Hutchinson , Leslie Solley and Konni Zilliacus were expelled.[2]
All these MPs were known for their communist sympathies, and the four joined with another independent MP, Denis Pritt , who had been expelled from the Labour Party in 1940 for supporting the Soviet Union in the Winter War , to form the Labour Independent Group.[2] [3]
The group regarded Soviet foreign policy as essentially defensive, and criticized the United States and the United Kingdom as bearing the greatest responsibility for the Cold War .
Zilliacus developed a negative impression of Stalin when the two met, and so he resigned from the group later in 1949, instead adopting a position of support for Josip Broz Tito , who he had also met.[2] 1950 general election , but all lost their seats, thus dissolving the group.[3]
