The Norfolk Federal Union (NFU) was set up in 1878 by George Rix of Swanton Morley and other local union leaders who were dissatisfied with Joseph Arch's National Agricultural Labourers' Union (NALU). They were opposed to centralised control by salaried staff at NALU head office and argued that a federation of strong local branches was a more democratic and radical form of organisation.
