He pays his staff as little as possible and employment tribunals are risky in the extreme if you're low-paid - if you lose the case then you're fucked.
I see. So he's running his business flouting the way the law should work, but taking advantage of the way it actually does.
Edit: A brief googling of him resulted in a spate with HMRC over pension details. Presumably there's a pensions scandal in there somewhere as well.

Plus you've got the hassle of trying to bring the case and deal with all the process and paperwork and all that shit in the first place, when you're out of work and scrambling to find something else for minimum wage/zero hours, or already in some other shit min wage job (or jobs) that sucks up all your time and energy.
He benefits from treating his employees like shit, safe in the knowledge that their circumstances make any kind of retaliation difficult. Obviously he's not the only cunt doing this, he's just currently one of the most visible ones in the news.
