Leaflet issued by the TUC in May 1928 in support of the Nottinghamshire Miners' Association.

In the aftermath of the General Strike, George Spencer, Miners' Federation MP for Broxtowe and ex-President of the Nottinghamshire Miners' Association (NMA) independently negotiated a local return to work. After being suspended by the NMA in November 1926 he formed a breakaway, "non-political" union, the Nottinghamshire and District Miners Industrial Union (often called the 'Spencer Union'), which expanded into other Districts during 1927-28. The MFGB organised a vigorous campaign against its rival and in the spring of 1928, the TUC organised a ballot of all miners in the Notts. coalfield asking which organisation they wished to represent them. The results announced on May 5 claimed a high poll of 82%, with 92% voting in favour of the NMA. However, the Miners' industrial Union survived in various Districts, notably Nottinghamshire and South Wales for a further 10 years.
