Workers' Party (Spain)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Workers Party (in Spanish: Partido de los Trabajadores) was a communist political party in Spain. It was founded in 1979 through the merger of the Party of Labour of Spain (PTE) and the Workers Revolutionary Organisation (ORT).

The Catalan branch of PT was known as Partit dels Treballadors de Catalunya (Workers Party of Catalonia). It published Yesca.

PT was shortlived. In 1980 a severe internal crisis erupted, and the party was soon disbanded.
