They can monitor you, per minute, per task – it’s micromanagement,” says Hylton. “It’s called ‘scanner adherence’ – you have to be scanning every minute, to show a constant, rapid scan.” Failure to do so can result in an "adapt", a type of warning. Staff are given two 30-minute breaks a day, only one of which is paid. But the GMB has reluctantly admitted defeat for now, rather than risk losing a recognition ballot, which would bar it from reapplying for three years. That first walkout was spectacular,” says Westwood. “I didn’t think it would work; not because I didn’t trust what we were doing, but because of the pressure. It was only 50 or 60 people, but because they were coming out in dribs and drabs, it just felt awesome.”

One expert told me people were worried about robots taking our jobs. Now, she said, the worry was about jobs treating people like robots and questions around that critical point are at the heart of this walk out. When you do a concentrated job, you don’t realise how much your body is being punished,” says Kazim.Westwood says he had previously felt no need for a union – but he and his colleagues turned to the GMB to help them channel their anger into organising. That first ballot was lost, by just a handful of votes, but they staged a rerun a few weeks later, as membership continued to build. The Aston Martin DBR1 is a sports racing car built by Aston Martin starting in 1956, intended for the World Sportscar Championship as well as non-championship sportscar races at the time. It is most famous as the victor of the 1959 24 Hours of Le Mans, Aston Martin's only outright victory at the endurance classic. It is one of only three cars in the 1950s to win both the World Sports Car Championship and Le Mans 24 Hours in the same year (the others being the Ferrari 375 Plus in 1954 and the Ferrari 250TR in 1958). In addition the six World Sports Car Championship victories was a record for any car in the 1950s and remained a record in the championship until surpassed by the Ferrari 250TR. The three consecutive triumphs in 1959 at the Nürburgring, Le Mans and the Tourist Trophy equalled the record set by the Ferrari 250TR with its three consecutive victories at the start of the 1958 season. We’re not going away; we’re only going to grow,” says Westwood. “Sooner or later, we’ll have recognition in Coventry.”

Julie Fyffe, Governance Manager for the centre said: “The Trustees, staff of BCC and the people of Belvedere are very grateful for this generous donation that will be utilised constantly to keep our grounds neat and tidy! We are overwhelmed by AMZL’s DBR1 generosity and interest in our community. We very much look forward to future cooperation and working together on upcoming projects including the new Belvedere Community Gardening Club to be announced soon. We would like to take this opportunity to thank Rhod, his team and all at DBR1 for this fantastic donation and commitment to our community. We would also like to thank Francesca Waite of AMZL for her enthusiasm and support.” Having worked intensively through the Covid crisis, when at-home shopping soared, staff in Coventry hoped for a generous pay rise when the pandemic abated. “We are the ones who worked through the pandemic. We risked our lives,” says Kazim.At BusinessYab our purpose is to help people find great local businesses like dentists, hair stylists, restaurants, bars, hotels, local businesses. Go Explore!

However, workers accuse it of cutting other benefits in the process. Crucially, the 5% pay rise it has given its staff amounts to a real-terms pay cut because inflation, which peaked at over 11% last year, has risen at more than double the pace. Garfield Hylton told me he has diabetes and needed to use the toilet more than average. But every time he leaves his station for the loo it's stressful - if the first one is occupied and he has to find another, he worries the break from scanning will be flagged. That spaceship, that boat of his: he would have none of that if it weren’t for his workers,” says Westwood’s colleague, Garfield Hylton.
