The law only protects you for 12 weeks....any subsequent ballot that is related to the first does NOT extend the 12 weeks. Therefore I think I'm right in saying that anyone out on strike in about 3 weeks time can be legally sacked.
Perhaps this was part of WW's masterplan.......the nearer he gets to that 12th June(?) date, the better chance he has of pulling out his Big Willie Eye-Waterer......locking out all the strikers (he's done it before) for the last couple of weeks and sacking them on the 12th- is that a possibility?
