In 1953 Charles won a seat on a local council, but lost it in 1955. Support for MK grew in the 1960s in opposition to growing migration into Cornwall from parts of England. In the 1970s, MK became a fully-fledged political party, and since then it has fielded candidates in elections to the <a href="/wiki/House_of_Commons_of_the_United_Kingdom" title="House of Commons of the United Kingdom">House of Commons</a> and the <a href="/wiki/European_Parliament" title="European Parliament">European Parliament</a>, as well as <a href="/wiki/Cornwall_Council" title="Cornwall Council">local government in Cornwall</a>.
