Consider what the Union goal is - expansion of membership and increased funding/power/leverage. Uber’s goal is brand-washing. Fighting employment law is a cynical win-win for the Union and Uber in this instance - member welfare be damned. Tells you a lot about the intentions of both the union and employers.

How can Uber grant this right? Wouldn't it be up to the workers to choose who represents them in the case of a labour dispute such as this?
