The Claimants Union Picture

 

Claimants Logo.

The Claimants Unions were active from the late 60s to the late 70s. In 1973 around 120 were operating in the UK, loosely connected in a national federation, and linked to groups in Europe and the USA. Little public information is recorded regarding the Claimants Unions and yet they typified much of the political and social action of the period.
