One year after the 1937 riots during the period referred to as the “Hungry Thirties” the Barbados Labour Party was founded.

The Party’s commitment is the same today as it was in 1938, when the eight founding fathers momentously fought for social reform for the underprivileged, industrial peace, and a measure of stability. Seventy years later BLP continues to be recognised for its contribution to the social and economic development of Barbados.
