Make or Break? The relationship between Labour and the unions

SSSHL Department of Humanities and Social Sciences

Research output: Contribution to journal › Article › peer-review

Abstract

The Labour party and the trade union movement are intrinsically linked. In 1899, a Trade Union Congress resolution began a chain of events that led to the establishment of the Labour Representation Committee in 1900 and the Labour party in 1906. Undoubtedly, the Labour party was a child of the unions, but, in recent years, has the child outgrown its parents?
