  • Manchester and Salford Politics and the Early Development of the Independent Labour Party
    JEFFREY HILL MANCHESTER AND SALFORD POLITICS AND THE EARLY DEVELOPMENT OF THE INDEPENDENT LABOUR PARTY The grass-roots activities of the Independent Labour Party have been the subject of increased scrutiny from historians over the past few years, especially in the pages of this journal.1 Consequently we can now be a little surer about the contribution of the party to the development of an in- dependent labour movement in Britain at the end of the nineteenth cen- tury, though with every fresh case-study a different local strategy seems to come to light. The one outstanding profile in this field is the closely observed account of the ILP in Bradford by J. Reynolds and K. Laybourn, who identify several key features in the party's growth in that city, notably the reformist nature of ILP socialism and the close associations with local trade unionism. "From the outset", they tell us, "Bradford trade unionism and the Bradford ILP were seen as two aspects of a single homogeneous labour movement aimed at the emancipation of the working class from poverty and exploitation."2 But how far this pattern of development was repeated elsewhere is a different matter. David Rubinstein's account of the ILP's intervention in the Barnsley bye-election of 1897, for example, reveals that the ILP in this area did not take up a Bradford-style policy of labour alliance until the late 1890's, and suggests that this was the case for the ILP as a whole.3 Yet studies of the party's activities on the other side of the Pennines indicate a different story still.

Migrant Workers in Rochdale and Oldham Executive Summary Lisa Hunt, Andy Steele and Jenna Condie Salford Housing & Urban Studies Unit University of Salford August 2008 2 The Study In recent years, there has been an increasing focus on the migration of people from Eastern Europe and the new EU countries 1. It is now recognised that local authorities need to understand the composition and needs of their local population in order to be able to plan and deliver services effectively, as well as being able to respond to any issues relating to community cohesion 2. Consequently, some local authorities are making efforts to find out about the experiences and needs of these new and emerging communities. This research was commissioned by Oldham Housing Investment Partnership, Oldham Metropolitan Borough Council, Oldham Rochdale Housing Market Renewal Pathfinder and Rochdale Metropolitan Borough Council in January 2008 and was conducted by a team of researchers from the Salford Housing & Urban Studies Unit (SHUSU) at the University of Salford.
