Morrison was Minister of Transport under Ramsay MacDonald From 1929 to 1931. George Strauss and Stafford Cripps launched the radical weekly 'The Tribune' in 1937, and lost £20,000 by the next year. Victor Gollancz agreed to support the paper on the condition it dropped its 'United Front' campaign. In 1939 Strauss, Cripps and Nye Bevan were expelled from the Labour party for advocating 'Popular Front' with the Liberals and Communists, but in 1940 they were called back into the fold.
