SocraticGadfly: Armando corporate client watch

Armando corporate client watch

Wal-Mart union-busting? Say it isn’t so.

But it is, and now in the United Kingdom.

Liz Cattaneo of American Rights at Work reports:
Asda Wal-Mart, as the company is known in the U.K., reneged on an agreement to recognize unions at all of its distribution centers. When employees spoke out about the broken agreement, Asda Wal-Mart apparently imported Wal-Mart’s anti-union handbook: pro-union employees reportedly faced threats, suspensions, propaganda, intimidation, and even firings.

Good thing that true liberal, Mr. Armando Llorens Sar, is doing such yeoman work for Wally-World via that incredibly progressive law firm, McConnell Valdés, where he’s a partner.
