"Independent unions"[edit]

This (and several) other articles refer to 'independent trade unions'. What does the 'independent' part mean? Independent of what? Party affiliation? Should there be a wikipedia article for 'Independent Trade Union'? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.133.209.188 (talk) 09:13:18, 27 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Independent of party affiliation. Independent trade unions are not affiliated to any political party nor do they subscribe to any political ideology Emac2013 (talk) 22:35, 20 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
