But the question is one of law, in law clearly his contract has passed from BBHL to OKB, as OKB bough the business, and all employees WERE 'TUPE'd" across. Including Kopczak, as it happens, because he didn't "resign" until some days after the change of ownership. I'm not an employment lawyer but the issue he has raised seems to be whether he can negate that after the event, if he does so within a relatively short timescale.

If I'm understanding TUPE regulations correctly then employees are automatically Tupe'd across to the new company on the date of the takeover, BUT then have 14 days to decide whether they want to continue their contract or resign. It doesnt matter if they continue to perform their job in the 14 day period, it doesnt mean they've accepted the TUPE. So this friday seems to be the cut off date for any other players to resign. If they dont then they agree to their contracts being transferred.
