A UNION official has been left nursing her wounds after she says she was repeatedly roughly manhandled on the picket line by Harrods security guards during the biggest-ever strike facing the luxury London shop.

Molly de Dios Fisher of the United Voices of the World (UVW) union said she was left with a fractured finger and whiplash after being repeatedly pushed into the ground  by guards while handing out leaflets at the swanky Knightsbridge store last week, when hundreds joined the picket on the second of a three-day strike for better conditions for workers there.
