"The Red Flag" (Roud V45381) is a socialist song, emphasising the sacrifices and solidarity of the international labour movement. It is the anthem of the British Labour Party,[1][2] the Northern Irish Social Democratic and Labour Party and the Irish Labour Party.[3] It was formerly used by the New Zealand Labour Party until the late 1940s.[4] The song is traditionally sung at the close of each party's national conference.[5]
Translated versions of the song are sung by the Japanese Communist Party and Korean People's Army.[6]
