Manuel Andreu Colomer (1889–1968) was a Catalan politician and trade unionist. As leader of the Barcelona electricians' union, he was a founding member of the Confederación Nacional del Trabajo (CNT). In 1915, he became editor of the CNT's newspaper Solidaridad Obrera and as was elected as the organisation's General Secretary. He was involved in a series of controversies during this time, due to his rejection of anarcho-syndicalism and recognition of minority nationalities in Spain, over which he was forced to resign his posts. He continued to participate in the restructuring of the CNT, successfully pushing for it to be organised along the lines of industrial unionism. By the time of the Second Spanish Republic, he had left the syndicalist movement and become a Catalan nationalist, serving in the Barcelona City Council as a member of Acció Catalana Republicana [ca].
