i just started reading The Making of the English Working Class, and while talking about Methodist contributions to working class organization, Thompson adds: "(Those Wesleyan Annual Conferences, with their 'platform', their caucuses at work on the agendas, and their careful management, seem uncomfortably like another 'contribution' to the Labour movement of more recent times.)"

what was the more recent contribution?? i wish i knew more stuff :(

thank you!
