THE LONDON Jewish Bakers Union (LJBU) was established in 1909 with the aim of fighting for better conditions, including an eight-hour day and the abolition of night shifts, and more pay.
LJBU began life in meetings of refugee bakers held in the Jewish pubs in London’s Black Lion Yard. At the time, most Jewish immigrants absorbed socialist ideas through union activism rather than study of its theory.
