Welcome to Workers of the World Wide Web, a brand new podcast about tech workers and the tech they work on, from United Tech & Allied Workers, the UK’s first trade union for tech.

On the agenda this week, Shireen Asaw, Eleanor Payne, Vanessa Heron-Hua and Edwin Dorley establish some ground rules, talk about Rockstar committing Grand Theft Union-Busting and catch up on the latest AI cons. 

The motion this week: "should trade unions disaffiliate from labour?"

Submit your motions to be voted on by this committee in their next meeting, to [email protected].
