The British Workers' Party, is a major political party of the Empire of Great Britain. Positioned on the centre-left to left wing on the political spectrum, the party has held significant sway over all aspects of politics for much of the regions' history.

The party was founded very early on in the Empire's history, by James Stephenson, as a way to unite the disparate leftist groupings in the Empire. The party would go on to become one of the most powerful and influential political forces in the Empire, serving as the party of origin for many important politicians such as James Forsyte, Charles Wright, Sirch Somerset and Victor Somerset. The BWP has had 7 Prime Ministers since its foundation.
