Worth a deep dive into Pádraig Yeates' book on the '13 lockout. Connolly was a much misunderstood and misrepresented character.
 
A subject of interest to me--I was a member of ITGWU back in the last century.
 
A pilgrimage I should make when we're travelling again...better that than the Green Christmas!
