Bradford Labour Union
This success led the Labour Union to decide to stand a candidate in the 1892 UK general election . Initially , it agreed to sponsor Robert Blatchford in Bradford East , but he withdrew , and instead the party sponsored Ben Tillett in Bradford West . Tillett was jointly sponsored by the Labour Union and the Trades Council , and he took 30 . 2% of the vote , although this was only enough for third place .
