EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the determined gaze of Will Thorne (1857-1946), a British trade unionist and Labour Party activist, as he addresses a passionate crowd during a parliamentary election campaign. Thorne, also known as 'Tom Titt' due to his small stature, was a towering figure in the labour movement, advocating tirelessly for workers' rights and social justice. Born into poverty in London's East End, Thorne began his working life at the age of six, laboring in a match factory. He joined the Matchgirls' Strike in 1888, which brought about significant improvements in working conditions and wages for women matchworkers. Thorne went on to become a leading figure in the National Union of Agricultural Workers and the National Union of General and Municipal Workers. In 1900, Thorne was elected as a Labour Party Member of Parliament for Bermondsey, making him one of the first Labour MPs in British history. Throughout his political career, he continued to champion the causes of the working class, advocating for better wages, shorter working hours, and improved living conditions. Thorne's unwavering commitment to social justice and workers' rights earned him a place in the annals of British labour history. This historical photograph, taken in 1946, captures a pivotal moment in Thorne's political career, as he rallies supporters during an election campaign. The image serves as a poignant reminder of the struggles and triumphs of the British labour movement and the enduring legacy of its pioneering figures like Will Thorne.
