In the videos below, angry agency car workers at BMW’s plant in Cowley lambast the plant’s union conveners after being given one hours notice of redundancy by management last Friday (writes Alan Thornett). They accuse the conveners of knowing of the redundancies in advance but concealing it from them. They demand the return of the union dues they have paid since they have been in the plant (some of them up to six years) on the basis that it was taken in false presences.
In part one, the announcement is made by the management; part two shows the discussion between the union and its members.
