This is a significant increase in trade union membership (up by 192,00 to 6.6 million) and density (up to 22.4 percent from 22 per cent) - but a more combative union movement against the employers and government could massively improve on this
BREAKING 🚨| The number of people in a union in the UK has GROWN by 192,000 - to 6.6 million.

There has never been a more important time to be a member of a union.

When unions do well, working people do well.

It pays to be in a union.
