Thorne among the Russian soldiers who had refused to fire upon the people at the onset of the Russian Revolution and is preserved among the papers of Ron Todd in the Warwick Digital Collection. In February 1917 with Russia exhausted by three years of war a series of strikes and bread riots in Petrograd led to the collapse of autocratic rule and the abdication of Tsar Nicholas II. In Britain the socialist movement greeted the fall of the Romanov dynasty with unanimous enthusiasm but found itself divided on the way forward and on questions of war and peace. Across the country meetings passed resolutions conveying fraternal greetings to the Petrograd Soviet of Workers' and Soldiers' Deputies one of two competing centres of revolutionary power and calling for peace in Europe. Others supported the internationally-recognised Provisional Government and shared its determination to pursue the war with Germany to a victorious conclusion. Several British labour delegations visited Russia and the Soviet Union during the period in question – one in 1917 another in 1920 a third in 1925 and finally the Women's Delegation of 1925. Their composition and objectives varied considerably reflecting the labour politics of their time – for instance the 1917 delegation met with the Provisional Government and urged support for the continuation of the First World War whereas the 1920 delegation against the backdrop of Hands Off Russia was staunchly anti-interventionist.
