Democratic Labor Party, Australia A political party emerging from the Australian Labor Party in 1957, sparked off by Evatt's handling of the Petrov affair, when some right-wing members left the ALP in 1955 in opposition to what they considered its Communist, dogmatic leanings. Supported by the Catholic Social Movement and Mannix, its overreliance on the Catholic vote and its fixation upon the single issue of anti-Communism meant that the party was unable to gain more than a few Senate seats, even though at times it held the balance of power there. It was unable to send any representatives to Parliament from 1974.
