The Working People's Party (Blostlandic: Arbeterfolksparti; AFP), is a social democratic political party in Eldmark. As of writing, the party holds the largest amount of seats in the Riksdag, with 108 seats out of a possible 345, and is the leader of a coalition of parties that includes Reformblock, Varldens Koalitionen, The Gahodi, and, controversially, the Eldmarsk Section of the Worker's Internationale. Founded in 1901 as the political arm of the Eldmarsk Trade Union Congress, the party is the second oldest active party in Eldmarsk politics, the first being the National Party by only two months.
The Working People's Party has been long a staunch advocate for welfare expansion, minority rights, nationalization of essential enterprises, and worker's rights. After the Great War, they were pressured into diluting their policies, abandoning the anti-capitalist platform for a more liberal one, embracing Keynesianism, causing the radical elements of the party to split into what would become the Eldmarsk Section of the Worker's Internationale (which would have to rebrand as the "Republican Party" to avoid arrest).
Since 2015, the party has been led by a rotating council of party officials, the most recent General Secretary of the Council being Karl Falk. The current Party Leader (and the Prime Minister of Eldmark) is Enoch "Eno" Ahaloke. The party has become a bastion for socially liberal beliefs and rights, demanding the legal recognition of trans people, enforcing anti-discrimination laws regarding race, gender, sexuality, and faith, and electoral reform.
