An ex-waitress at a pancake restaurant has claimed she was sacked because she is a Labour Party member and trade unionist.
Lauren Harper, 20, worked for Stack & Still in Glasgow when she was abruptly let go, with managers saying her views “did not align with the company”. She later found out bosses had trawled her social media account where she discussed trade union activism.
Firm CEO Paul Reynolds cited Lauren’s tweets including ones where she encouraged others to join a trade union. Lauren joined Stack & Still’s West George Street branch on October 12 and was sacked on November 6.
