The last piece:

"Finnish transport union AKT joined in on Thursday, saying it too would block Teslas coming through Finnish harbors if no deal was reached by December 20. "It is a crucial part of the Nordic labor market model that we have collective agreements and unions support each other," Ismo Kokko, president of AKT, said in a statement."

Thus, now it is a true cross-border issue covering a whole region.


He already accepted German labour organisation requirements for gigafactory. So this is a connected immovable.


Taken from the article:

> However, Musk has recently addressed his distaste for unions, saying in New York last week: “I disagree with the idea of unions. I just don’t like anything which creates a lords and peasants sort of thing. I think the unions naturally try to create negativity in a company.”

Is this clown for real?
