Black Friday (1921) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Black Friday (1921)
Black Friday, in British labour history, refers to 15 April 1921, when the leaders of transport and rail unions announced a decision not to call for strike action in support of the miners.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Black Friday and the TUC )〕 The epithet 'black' derives from a widespread feeling that the decision amounted to a breach of solidarity and a betrayal of the miners. ==Background - The Triple Alliance==
In the 1890s and the first two decades of the twentieth century, increasing efforts were made to bring about amalgamations of small, local trade unions and to forge links between different organizations, with a view to securing united action. The National Transport Workers' Federation was created in 1910 to co-ordinate the actions of trade unions representing dockers, seamen, tramwaymen and so forth, and in 1912 the National Union of Railwaymen was created as an amalgamation of a large number of local and sectional organizations representing rail workers. In 1914, the rail and transport unions came together with the Miners' Federation of Great Britain to form the Triple Alliance. Although the agreements arrived at did not constitute a binding agreement of any kind, the formation of the alliance was recognised as a vehicle for united action by the largest and most powerful industrial groups.
