Gas Stokers' strike
The Gas Stokers' strike of 1872 was a serious political disturbance in the industrial south-eastern districts of Victorian London involving trade unionists striking to assert their rights. The reaction of the radical Liberal ministry and the court case that preceded it proved a landmark in British industrial relations law.
