In our regular monthly update, we share the latest news from our firm.
In June 2022, associate Nathaniel Barber commented on the ongoing supermarket equal pay claims.
Nathaniel’s comments were published in the Legal Diary and can be found here. He said:
“While many of Sainsbury’s in-store workers are struggling to make ends meet, the CEO, Simon Roberts, received a shocking £3.8 million pay deal last year.
For years, these frontline workers – and similar employees at other supermarket chains – have been fighting for the basic right of equal pay for equal work in comparison with their peers working in Distribution Centres.
Yet, supermarkets remained unmoved by their employees’ plight, instead, forcing them to turn to the justice system and bring claims which have been bogged down in years of prevaricating by the supermarket Defendants.”
Also this month, Eleanor Leedham, Senior Associate, reflected on possible outcomes in the competition group action claim against a cartel of power cable producers.

Eleanor Leedham also examined the UK’s new opt-out class action regime for competition claims, including the various arguments surrounding the domicile date which determines the number of claimants.
Eleanor’s article was published in New Law Journal and can be found here.
We look forward to bringing you more news from across our business next month.
