'Shafted': Roberts Bakery rescue deal leaves dozens unpaid with no redundancy

Roberts Bakery Workers Left Unpaid

Dozens of Roberts Bakery workers have lost their redundancy packages and pay already earned after the firm was bought and renamed by a billionaire food magnate.

In July, the struggling Frank Roberts & Sons, the bakery's parent firm, announced 250 workers were entering a compulsory redundancy consultation period.

Workers with the shortest notice periods were expecting to finish next week, while many expected to still have jobs until Friday, December 12.
