The archives of Tom Mann and Ben Tillett at the MRC are rich sources on the late 19th / early 20th century labour movement and foundation of 'new unionism'

The pamphlet below (from Tillett's archives) can be read in full through the link given by @lgupbook.bsky.social
Mann & Tillett wrote this pamphlet in 1890 in response to an attack by the older unionists on the new breed of unionism

In his book on Mann, Phil Katz describes it as 'one of the founding documents of the modern labour mvt' @mrcwarwick.bsky.social
