MPs must hold Wilko bosses to account over “clear failings” that led to the firm’s collapse and loss of more than 10,000 jobs, GMB has said.
The union urged Parliament’s business and trade select committee to summon the discount high street retailer’s chiefs to give evidence over its collapse in September and October.
In an open letter to the committee chairman Liam Byrne MP, national officer Nadine Houghton said the devastating closure of more than 400 stores could have been avoided.
