Some parts of the UK have a strong tradition of trade union membership that has persisted even after the anti-union laws passed in the 80s. My perception is that Cornwall is not one of these areas. As the labour movement was growing in the UK, Cornwall’s industry was already in deep decline, and the sectors that replaced it (agriculture, fishing, tourism) tended not to be so heavily unionized. So unions have to build engagement from the ground up.
