The BBC report does not state how the Euro law stipulates how holiday pay is to be calculated. The report does state that in effect it was cheaper for LB Greenwich to settle rather than go to expensive tribunal litigation. All very unsatisfactory and it has cost the council tax payers £4 million .. I find it troubling that a tribunal hearing, even a high court hearing could cost that much money

I don’t think the issue is how holiday pay is calculated in itself. It’s that you have to treat your employees equally, which Greenwich didn’t.
As for settling - if they thought they had a case, I’m sure they would have gone to a tribunal. I assume they were advised they would lose, so may as well pay up the £4m now, than go to a tribunal and pay £4m plus everyone’s legal fees.
"Unison used European law". Just as well we are taking back control.
Yeah I’m sure when we leave the European Union they will just not bother having any laws.
Have you seen the sort of people who will be making those new laws?
There is a way of changing them though aint there. Okay it will only be for another load of numpties, but at least they will be numpties elected in by the British people.

Exactly, it’s a powerful position and the post holder is an unknown.
My post was in reference to the democracy table above my post., so I ask the same question about that one.

Unknown to who? You make it sound like they just plucked her of the street. She was the Minister for Infrastructure & Develoment for Poland, and Deputy Prime Minister. So she’s not exactly unqualified for a role in government. The fact that you (and me) haven’t heard of her doesn’t make her unqualified for the job.
