Warned workers to not sign union cards and shouted at workers. Happened awhile ago but relevant.

The UK branch of Amazon recently balloted its staff on whether to recognise trade-unions, principally the GMB.
It was turned down but quite narrowly, and it is alleged the company had spent a lot of money and effort on an anti-union propaganda drive to obtain that result.
I don't know what frightens Amazon so much. They have to abide by quite strong employee-protection regulations anyway, at least in the UK and any EU nations in which they operate.
Also, many British employees are in unions, and on the whole labour relations are good despite the heavy publicity given to the railway workers and medical staff disputes over the last year.
(I was a union member, and now retired, am in its Retired Members' branch)
