Paul Anderson journalist: LABOUR'S UNION PROBLEM
http://pandersonjournalist.blogspot.com/2014/02/labours-union-problem.html
Friday, 7 February 2014. Paul Anderson, Tribune. Column, 7 February 2014. Labour’s relationship with the trade unions has always been a problem. Union barons became fixtures in Labour politics, controlling local parties through their surrogates in much of the country and wielding decisive influence over the party conference – and between conferences they ran the National Executive Committee.

ORWELL IN TRIBUNE: Frank Kermode, New York Review of Books
http://orwelltribune.blogspot.com/2007/06/reviews-of-orwell-in-tribune-16-frank.html
Tuesday, 12 June 2007. Frank Kermode, New York Review of Books. During his years as literary editor and columnist on the left-wing weekly Tribune. George Orwell wrote, in addition to his journalism, Animal Farm. Suited him very well, letting him do as he pleased, offering a measure of political agreement but also a background against which his boldness and oddity stood out very clearly.
