The Social Democratic Workers' Party (Dellish: Sosjaal-Demokratyske Arbeiderspartij; SDAP) or the Social Democratic Left Party (Kirenian: Sotsiaaldemokraatlik Vasakpartei; SDVP), is a social democratic political party in Alsland. Founded in 1938 as a merger between 3 left-leaning parties opposed to the Alslandic Section of the Workers' International (ASAY) and National Bloc it was traditionally the main party of the centre-left until it was replaced by moderate Progressive Alliance.
Since 2021 the party has been led by former President of the Euclean Community and MEP Bonne Zijlstra. Since 2018 the party forms a faction in the Folkssenaat with ASAY which it also runs a joint list with in national elections. The party is represented in the Parliament of the Dellish Community and is the official opposition party in Yndyk and leads the regional government in De Herne. The party holds 1 seat out of Alsland's 24 in the Euclean Parliament and is a founding member of the Socialist Alternative for Euclea.
The party was founded when the Socialist Workers' Party, Social Democratic Party and Left Voters Association merged in 1936. The party remained minor until it achieved an electoral breakthrough in 1980. Kevin Kaljurand became the party's first Premier in 1994 after the party won 57 seats and 27% of the vote, the party remained the largest party in terms of seats until 2002 when it placed third behind ASAY and the National Bloc, it subsequently entered a rotation coalition with the National Bloc led initially by Bonne Zijlstra. The party withdrew it's support of the National Bloc government in 2006 and supported ASAY in the wake of the world financial crisis and Alslandic banking crisis which led to anti-ASAY moderate splitting and forming the Progressive Alliance which eventually replaced the party as the dominant party of the centre-left. The party joined a joint faction with ASAY after it lost all of it's seats in the 2018 election.
