Fred Casey
Frederic Albert Casey (1876 – October 2, 1956) was a working class socialist educationalist who was active in the National Council of Labour Colleges.
Casey was born in Bury, Lancashire, England, and became interested in dialectical materialism as presented by Joseph Dietzgen in his book The Positive Outcome of Philosophy, of which the English translation was published in 1906.[1] Although he originally trained as a plumber, after losing his leg in accident, he retrained as a watchmaker, and he supported himself by working as watchmaker for over fifty years. However he was also active as a tutor with the Manchester Labour College.[2]

gollark: Though you do need sensible small parties in the first place.
gollark: Probably less so, if you can vote for a popular party you like less and a less popular one you like more. It reduces the "I don't like either big party but I'm voting for the least bad one" thing.
gollark: Also, it isn't considered that as far as I'm aware since you are not actually (explicitly) ranking options.
gollark: That's a big group of things.
