Description
The Price of TUC Leadership (1961) is a serious criticism of the TUC by the General Secretary of another large trade union. It contends, among other things, that the TUC bore responsibility for Labour's defeat in the 1959 General Election, and for the decline in the influence and effectiveness of the trade union movement. It also criticises the leadership and its public relations, and covers the part played by the union in the de-nationalization of the steel industry.
