    Silly boss, but ask him why?

    Is he stupid or is there something he is scared of.

    That would do wonders for the average intelligence of the human race in actually raising it ;)

    No, it's been against the law for more than 130 years.

    The Ballot Act 1872 introduced the secret ballot to prevent this kind of thing.

    The Corrupt and Illegal Practices Prevention Act 1883 was brought in to prevent this very kind of intimidation.

    Thanks for this! I love my job and the people I work with, but supposing he did directly threaten me I would happily walk away.

    You bloody shouldn't walk away anywhere. You let him sack you and take him to the cleaners.

    To answer your question, no he cannot and that would be unfair dismissal.

    Not if, thanks to the Tories, she has been working in the job for fewer than two years. Also, thanks to the Tories, she won't get legal aid for an industrial tribunal.
