Workers feared Jingye executives might sabotage the works, according to a person briefed on events.
A union source confirmed that police were called this morning at about 8am after Jingye executives tried to enter the Scunthorpe plant. The executives left shortly after.
The workers locked out the bosses. The police arrived and backed up the workers. Bosses went home. Fucking amazing.
Yeah, because the government told the police what to do and the police did it. In this case what’s good for the workers happens to be what’s good for the government, but that doesn’t mean that there’s some kind of police supported workers uprising about to happen.
