Talk:John Robertson (New Zealand politician, born 1875)

Social Democrat or Labour (1910)
A search of PapersPast for Robertson + Otaki in the period of the to year end is overwhelming in favour of Labour. The Maoriland Worker and a few others refer to him generically as Socialist and I've yet to find a reference for him being a Social Democrat.Fan |  talk  04:48, 1 March 2012 (UTC)
 * He was elected for Labour (1910) then when the Social Democrats were founded in 1913 he joined them.Kiwichris (talk) 11:24, 5 January 2016 (UTC)
