The Labor Right, also known as Modern Labor or Labor Unity, is a political faction of the Australian Labor Party (ALP) at the national level that is characterised by being more supportive of free markets and can be more socially conservative than the Labor Left.[6] The Labor Right is a broad alliance of various state factions and competes with the Labor Left faction.
