Lord Bill: A Trade Union Miracle by Geoffrey Goodman
Lord Bill Morris of Handsworth OJ is the first black man to rise to the top of any major British institution. When, in 1991, he became general secretary of the Transport and General Workers Union – then the largest trade union in the country – it marked a huge break in the culture of British working class attitudes towards racial discrimination. The first black immigrant to take the top job in any British trade union; the first black immigrant to join the government board of the Bank of England; the first black immigrant to become President of the Trade Union Congress … he was, as he says in his book, ‘always a first’ in this respect.
