In UK politics, the Gang of Four was a breakaway group of four Labour politicians who founded the Social Democratic Party in 1981,[1] including two sitting Labour MPs and a former deputy leader of the party.
The term Gang of Four is a reference to the political faction of four Chinese Communist Party officials who came to prominence during the Cultural Revolution (1966–1976) and were accused of attempting to seize power following the death of Mao Zedong.[2]
