Fred Jowett
Frederick William Jowett (31 January 1864 – 1 February 1944) was a British Labour politician.
==Early life==
Jowett was born in Bradford, West Yorkshire on 31 January 1864. Jowett received little formal education and at the age of eight was working half-time at the local textile mill, moving to full-time work at the age of 13.〔J.A. Jowitt, "Frederick William Jowett," in A. Thomas Lane, ''Biographical Dictionary of European Labor Leaders: A-L.'' Westport, CT: Greenwood Press, 1995; pg. 464.〕 In 1886, he was promoted to overlooker and after attending evening classes in weaving and design at Bradford Technical College (now the University of Bradford), was employed as a manager at the mill.
As a young man Jowett read the works of William Morris and in 1887 he joined the Socialist League.〔 This organisation was won over to anarchism after 1889 and the Bradford branch subsequently disbanded, moving Jowett to instead join the Labour Electoral Association.〔 Jowett was also a founding member of the Bradford Labour Union, a group formed to support strikers at the Manningham Mills in Bradford.〔 Jowett was a Christian Socialist and was furious when local churchmen criticised the strikers. Jowett responded by helping form the "Bradford Labour Church" in the town.〔
