Scottish United Trades Councils Labour Party

Scottish United Trades Councils Labour Party

The Scottish United Trades Councils Labour Party was a Scottish labour party.

The party was founded in 1891 by various trades councils. It also had the support of the Scottish Socialist Federation. In the 1892 UK general election, it stood four candidates, who between them won 2,313 votes. The organisation appears to have dissolved soon afterwards.
