Fighting the Unions in Sweden. Good fucking luck, better prepare to pack your bags and leave.
The Nordic countries make up five of the top six most unionized countries, with Sweden being in 3rd place.
Good luck beating them, Tesla! You're gonna need it.
As the articles says
And while Tesla doesn't have to fight 90 percent of all employess yet. If they're bringing in strikebreakers all unions must act to not let a prescedence happen.
Not only their own employees would strike, but also employees of suppliers and everything that is connected to Tesla so nothing will reach the company unless Elon personally swings into a truck and drives the stuff into his factories.
Unionized and in the automotive sector. Would 100% strike in support of the Tesla workers. I'd rather see Tesla leave Sweden than have them succeed in this.
This is where the game of chicken is. The only question it boils down to is does Elon love winning pointless battles that require self sacrifice or does he love money? It’s a hard question tbh but I think deep down we know he’s a money grub as a priority, in which case he’ll cave and compromise to keep selling cars in Sweden
