Industrial Charter

"The Industrial Charter: A Statement of Conservative Industrial Policy" was a 1947 pamphlet and policy statement by the United Kingdom Conservative Party in which the party reconciled itself with the radical social changes introduced by the Labour Party government following the United Kingdom general election, 1945.

The "Charter" gave a commitment that the party would not reverse the nationalisations of the Labour government, would protect labour rights and would oppose protectionism.

It marked the beginning of the post-war consensus that would later be satirised as Butskellism.
