EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in the history of the Transport and General Workers Union. The image showcases Moss Evans, a delegate from the union, standing proudly on the left side of the frame. In the center stands Jack Jones, renowned as one of Britain's most influential trade union leaders during his tenure as general secretary from 1969 to 1978. Accompanying them is an unnamed man whose identity remains a mystery. The photograph was taken during a conference held in April 1977, where delegates gathered to discuss crucial matters affecting workers' rights and welfare. It serves as a testament to their dedication and determination in advocating for fair treatment within their respective industries. Following his retirement in 1978, Mr. Jones declined an offer of peerage but instead redirected his passion towards becoming president of the National Pensioners Convention. This decision exemplifies his unwavering commitment to fighting for social justice even after leaving office. Kent Gavin skillfully captured this historic moment with great attention to detail, allowing us to glimpse into an era when unions played a pivotal role in shaping labor policies and protecting workers' interests across the country.
