EDITORS COMMENTS

AND ARTHUR SCARGILL (RIGHT), 1974) "Trade unions: A powerful force for workers' rights and social change throughout history" From the struggles of the working class to the triumphs of collective bargaining, trade unions have played a pivotal role in shaping our society. The Six Points of the Peoples Charter litho serves as a reminder of their fight for fair wages, universal suffrage, and better working conditions. In 1897, outside the closed East India Dock Gates in Poplar, London, a determined crowd stood united against exploitation and injustice. This image captures their resilience and unwavering spirit in demanding respect from employers. A. J. Cook's leadership during the miners' strike in 1926 exemplifies how individuals can inspire movements that challenge oppressive systems. His dedication paved the way for significant improvements in miners' rights. Dating back to 1834, Copenhagen Fields witnessed one of many historic gatherings where workers voiced their grievances. Artist W Summers immortalized this momentous event that marked an early milestone in trade union activism. The Syndicat Central des Agriculteurs de France by George Fay showcases international solidarity among farmers fighting for fair treatment at home and abroad. It highlights how trade unions transcend borders to advocate for justice across industries. Ben Tillett and John Ward stand tall as icons who fought tirelessly on behalf of dockworkers during tumultuous times. Their portrait symbolizes unity within labor movements striving for equitable conditions amidst industrialization's rapid growth. The CGT cover on French Satirical Magazine L'Assiette au Beurre depicts how humor became a tool to expose injustices faced by French workers at that time—a testament to art's ability to amplify voices demanding change. Marchers from Shoreditch participating in Means Test protests at Hyde Park demonstrate ordinary people's determination against poverty during challenging economic times—proof that they are not limited solely to workplace issues but also champion broader societal concerns.
