Keep - Once notable, always notable. It's hard to remember that far back, but at one time this was actually a big deal within the left wing of the U.S. labor movement. While it turned out to be another fizzle, like the Citizens Party, it attracted some serious national attention and worried the usual establishment figures within both the Democratic Party and the labor bureaucracy. --Orange Mike | Talk 16:14, 23 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
What evidence of there is original notability? The article doesn't have any independent sourcing! Toa Nidhiki05 17:30, 23 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. See [1] [2], [3] for just a few examples.--User:Namiba 17:11, 25 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Sufficient sourcing is provided. --Enos733 (talk) 21:39, 25 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Keep 2 minute search on newspapers.com turns up thousands of items of press coverage ... even leaving aside alternate spellings of the UK or Israeli parties, there's a vast amount of material that clearly shows notability. Easily passes WP:NONPROFIT. Regards, --Goldsztajn (talk) 20:18, 26 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
