The Life and Times of the Labour Council of New South Wales. In 1871, the Sydney trade unionists formed the Labour Council of New South Wales with the words: " To mutually protect and assist each other in case of oppression." And throughout its tumultuous history, this has remained the essential rationale for the Labour Council. Author Raymond Markey presents the characters who dominated the union Movement, together with an institutional record an an analysis of the Labour Council in the union movement and society at large, including its part in the founding of the Labour Party and the ACTU.
