Interesting framing there. A setback for one party rather than a victory to the other. I know, I know. Negative headlines sell better but man the news landscape looks grim enough as is.

Where they will barely get a rounding error for a fine. I wonder how much they have offered them to settle already?

The more important goal, at least for the affected workers, is it can lead to an employment tribunal and compensation (with no upper limit) for their lost income.

It’s easy to be cynical about the bigger picture, but don’t lose sight of the fact this can still be a big win for these workers.
