People's Convention
The People's Convention was a "people's government" that was proposed by communists in the United Kingdom in 1940–1941. Its advocates attempted to persuade Labour Party and trade union members that the current government was solely for the rich and was dominated by those who through appeasement had "caused" the Second World War, who opposed the Soviet Union, and who were profiteering from the war. Its literature did not, however, explicitly state that it was communist-backed.
The Convention was the initiative of the Hammersmith Trades Council and Labour Party and Denis Nowell Pritt, Member of Parliament for North Hammersmith, who had both been expelled from the Labour Party in 1940. It was backed by Palme Dutt, Robin Page Arnot, Harry Pollitt, and Willie Gallacher, all well-known communists. Many of the founder members were members of the People's Vigilance Committee, which had been formed by communists expelled from the Labour Party.
The Convention was vigorously opposed by the Labour Party and the Trades Union Congress and never really got off the ground; eventually it was disowned by the Communist Party of Great Britain itself in January 1942.
There were also proposals for regional People's Conventions, including a Midlands Convention and a Scottish Convention.
