"Delegates at Scottish TUC, 1897" [T0028.jpg], 1897
Delegates to the first annual Scottish Trades Union Congress in the Berkeley Hall in Glasgow 25-27 March 1897. The Scottish TUC was formed partly as a result of the exclusion of Trades Councils from the British Trade Union Congress in 1895. Trades Councils had played a particularly important role in trade unionism in Scotland. The Scottish TUC was not a rival but was an autonomous organisation. It provided greater opportunity to its delegates to consider matters particularly affecting Labour in Scotland than was normally possible at the British Congresses. |
