oh but the costs are very limited.

The maximum amount that you can be awarded as compensation for Unfair Dismissal is presently the statutory capof £86,444, or 52 weeks gross salary- whichever is the lower. This is in addition to the basic award which can be ordered by the Tribunal of up to a maximum of £15,750. These figures are from 6th April 2019

dismiss a few of the more vocal strikers (not the reps they have access to immediate relief)” pour encouragers les autres”

let them take you to employment tribunal in say 12-18 months. Don’t even need an expensive solicitor if you admit it all.

Unfortunately UK employment law is pathetic and only get worse for workers.
