释义 |
Herbert Lionel Bullock (1885 – September 1967) was a British trade unionist. Born in Bristol, Bullock began working at the age of eleven.[1] He joined the National Union of Gas Workers and General Labourers early in life.[2] His union merged into the National Union of General and Municipal Workers (NUGMW), and in 1926, he began working for it full-time. In 1935, he was appointed as the NUGMW's National Industrial Officer, and this led, two years later, to a seat on the General Council of the Trades Union Congress (TUC).[1] Bullock devoted the remainder of his working life to the union, chairing the TUC's education and local government committees, serving for the International Labour Organization, and taking a particular interest in adult education. He also sat on the National Arbitration Tribunal Panel, and the Royal Commission on Taxation and Profits.[1] Bullock was elected as President of the TUC for 1950, following which, he retired. In retirement, he still continued to attend the TUC as a guest, and died in 1967 in a hotel in between sessions of congress.[1] References1. ^1 2 3 Trades Union Congress, Report of the 1967 Annual Trades Union Congress, p.436 {{start box}}{{s-npo|union}}{{succession box|title=Trades Union Congress representative to the American Federation of Labour|years=1948|with=William Harold Hutchinson|before=Arthur Deakin and Robert Openshaw|after=Lincoln Evans and Tom Williamson}}{{succession box|title=President of the Trades Union Congress|years=1949/50|before=Will Lawther|after=Alfred Roberts}}{{end box}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Bullock, Herbert}}2. ^"The New Chairman", Labour, vol.12, p.450 6 : 1885 births|1967 deaths|English trade unionists|Members of the General Council of the Trades Union Congress|People from Bristol|Presidents of the Trades Union Congress |
