Georges Buisson

George Louis Hubert Buisson (2 December 1878 – 31 January 1946) was a French trade union leader and Resistance activist.

However, in 1905, when it merged into the French Section of the Workers' International (SFIO), he did not join, instead contesting local elections as an independent socialist.

[1] During World War I, Buisson served in the infantry, then he returned to trade unionism, and in 1920 became general secretary of the FEC, which came with a seat on the administrative commission of the CGT.

In 1926, he married Suzanne Lévy, a prominent figure in the SFIO, and subsequently he joined the party himself.

In August 1943, he was made a CGT delegate to the Consultative Assembly, the first person to speak at it, and its vice president.
