C. J. Drummond

Charles James Drummond (30 July 1848 – 10 February 1929) was a British trade union leader.

[2] As general secretary, Drummond focused on arbitrating disputes, often finding in favour of the employers,[3] and also on an ultimately successful campaign for a nine-hour working day.

Unlike the large majority of trade unionists, Drummond was a supporter of the Conservative Party.

After a period out of work, he found a job with the Labour Department of the Board of Trade, and remained in it until his retirement.

[2] In 1923, Harry Levy-Lawson, 1st Viscount Burnham hosted a lunch in Drummond's honour, at which he was given an annuity of £200 per year.
