The #Uber loss in the Supreme Court “highlights a grey area in the law”, says Brooke Van Velden.
It’s been through 3 courts. The judges were unanimous. There’s nothing grey about it. The law is black & white. WORKERS HAVE RIGHTS! That’s the real “problem” this anti-worker govt wants to “fix” #nzpol
