No. Not all unions are affiliated to Labour, and all union members have a box to tick on their union application form, enabling them to opt-out of the political levy, part of which goes to the Labour Party. Later opt-outs are simple matters of filling in a short form.

Of course, all this is about enforced support of socialism & is the greatest evil ever to befall humankind.
