Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The Labour and Trade Union Group was an organisation of supporters of the Militant Tendency in Northern Ireland. The group originated in the Northern Ireland Labour Party, but developed a separate existence as that organisation declined in support. It was initially named the "Labour and Trade Union Coordinating Committee", and aimed to include other left-wingers. It campaigned for a Conference of Labour, at which trade unions, socialist groups and community campaigns could agree a co-ordinated approach to labour movement politics, but no such conference was ever held. The group failed to win any support and was largely considered a fringe party. It stood Muriel Tang in the 1983 UK general election in Belfast East, where she took 1.5% of the vote. It then stood three candidates for Belfast City Council at the Northern Ireland local elections, 1985, none of whom were elected. At the 1992 UK general election, it stood two candidates, including leader Peter Hadden, who took 1,264 votes between them. By 1993, it was part of Militant Labour. It joined the short lived Labour Coalition in 1996.
