Singapore People's Alliance

The Singapore People's Alliance was a political alliance in Singapore founded in 1958, consisting of the Liberal Socialist Party (LSP) and former members of the Labour Front (LF). It contested the 1959 general election and became the opposition; and the 1963 general election under the Singapore Alliance Party (SAP) in which it failed to win any seats.

History
SPA was led by the former Chief Minister Lim Yew Hock SPA contested the subsequent 1963 general election under the SAP, which was a branch of the federal Alliance Party. SPA's presence within the alliance sparked friction with elements of the Singapore branch of the United Malay National Organisation (UMNO). This was partly attributed by historian Albert Lau to the failure of Lim to stand in the elections. Meanwhile, the political focus had shifted to PAP's rivalries, with UNMO at the federal level, and Barisan Sosialis (BS) at the national level. SPA was eventually dissolved on 16 May 1965. ==Election results==
