"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, the Northern Irish Social Democratic and Labour Party, and the Irish Labour Party. It was used by the New Zealand Labour Party until the late 1940s. The song is traditionally sung at the close of each party's national conference. Translated versions of the song are sung by the Japanese Communist Party and Korean People's Army. Some Chelsea, Oldham Athletic, and Sunderland supporters sing the song, albeit with altered lyrics, at their games.
