Portrait of Tom Mann Tom Mann Open Letter to British Soldiers (1912)

And both Your poverty and Ours arises from the fact that Britain with its resources belongs to only a few people. These few, owning Britain, own Our jobs. Owning Our jobs, they own Our very Lives.
⁠Comrades, have We called in vain? Think things out and refuse any longer to Murder Your Kindred. Help Us to win back Britain for the British, and the World for the Workers.

Portrait of Tom Mann Tom Mann Open Letter to British Soldiers (1912)

Instead of fighting against each other, we should be fighting with each other.
⁠Out of Our loins, Our lives, Our homes, You came.
⁠Don't disgrace Your Parents, Your Class, by being the willing tools any longer of the Master Class.
⁠You, like Us, are of the Slave Class. When We rise, You rise ; when We fall, even by your bullets, Ye fall also.
