The London Trades Council was a labour organisation, uniting London's trade unionists.
It was founded in May 1860, it was one of four such organisations, including the Sheffield
Trades Council, the Glasgow Trades Council and the Edinburgh Trades Council.
The Council helped organise labor to stand up to the employers for better working
conditions.
Once the Trades Union Congress (TUC) was founded in 1868, the Labor Trades Council
lost their national leadership role, but, stayed the most important trades council
in the country.
By 1953 the Council had become quite radical and was re-organised by the TUC and
re-founded as the London Federation of Trades Councils, which became the Greater London
Association of Trades Councils (GLATC), in 1974.
