British Energy staff at Hunterston B Nuclear Power Station threatened with dismissal if they show support (refuse to cross picket lines) for official strike action by Balfour Kilpatrick electricians.
Sept 12th / 13th 2006

Workers at Hunterston Nuclear Power station have been told by British Energy management, that the official strike action planned by contract electricians Balfour Kilpatrick, "does not concern them", and that, "any employee that does not report for work (refuses to cross the picket line), will face diciplinary action".
BK are scrapping a 30 year old 'Nuclear Site' agreement that enhances the workers' wage by 50p/hour.
