My sister-in-law was in the same position as you but instead chose to look elsewhere. She is now happily employed in another job. My husband was made redundant last year and I have had to resign due to bullying issues. It is not easy in this economy to be out of work, but to fight an issue like yours is sometimes not worth it. I did win an unjustified dismissal case last year but I had a good lawyer who was able to prove that I was treated unjustly. I would only suggest this if you can prove what the employer is doing. You are probably better off to simply resign, accept it and move on. It maybe difficult financially for awhile (we are struggling on an extremely low income) but it can be done. Unfortunately this happens a lot. We are simply cutting back, accepted an offer of a cheap house from my brother, looking for free entertainment, scouring the internet for cheap meals and saving where we can. If you get behind in bills most places are happy to accommodate you if you ring and let them know early on. Best of luck.
