John Oliver tonight!!
John's show tonight was a jaw dropper. The analysis & solution offered to fix the rampant corruption on the SCOTUS was excellent.

High tech Seagate joins the labor movement
Seagate workers secure collective bargaining rights for Unite in historic ballot says trade union

This doesn't happen very often in high tech.
Unite regional secretary for Ireland Susan Fitzgerald said: This is a huge win. Seagate is one of Northern Irelands leading manufacturers and if a union can be built there in the face of such a professional and well-financed anti-union campaign, then it can be built anywhere.
This result will be noticed by workers right across the economy, most especially in the northwest. Now is the time for workers to join a union and secure a collective voice.
Unite said that following the result, the employer has 30 days to negotiate a voluntary collective bargaining agreement with the union or else have a statutory one imposed by the industrial court.
