Labour Party (DP): a center-left, populist party led by businessman Viktor Uspaskich; not affiliated with either governing or opposition coalitions.
Kažkada buvo Lietuvos verslo darbdavių konfederacija ir Vakarų Lietuvos pramonės ir finansų korporacija, kurios kaip politinis anstatas (galima sakyti ir „stogas") buvo sukurta Darbo partija. Ji atvedė į politiką visą būrį verslininkų. Rimtų ir nemažai versle pasiekusių. Kad tą anie darė atvirai, tai yra aiškus pliusas.
The 2012 election was won by the left, concentrated around two parties: the Social Democratic Party of Lithuania (Lietuvos socialdemokratų partija, LSP) and the Labour Party (Darbo partija, DP), which together, however, still did not have a majority.
These circumstances were ideally suited to a party that combined a leftist outlook with anti-establishment rhetoric, so the new Labour Party, rather than Paksas's Liberal Democrats, came from nowhere to win a plurality of votes and seats. Labour's wealthy Russian leader, Viktor Uspaskich, may have helped his party's cause by reminding some voters of the socially secure Soviet times.
„Mes turime. Turime. Taip", – paklaustas, ar Darbo partija jau dabar yra pasiruošusi likvidavimui ir dėl to sukūrė Leiboristų partiją, teigė V. Uspaskichas.
This time, the Labour Party's platform promises to work towards improving business conditions for local producers and boosting private investment in the country's regions – saying this will provide the economic basis for social spending.

The coalition, which has a constitutional majority, has been formed by centre-left groupings: the Social Democrats, the Labour Party, Order and Justice, and the Electoral Action of Poles in Lithuania (AWPL).
Of the two Lithuanian cases, Labour Party can be argued to have run on basically a social democratic ticket without the alleged corruption of Algirdas Brazauskas' Social Democratic Party.
