Rockstar Games' Grand Theft Auto franchise has generated over $10.22 billion in revenue since 2013.  They have not paid UK corporation tax in many recent years, claiming millions in tax credits instead. What the staff are asking for is the right to have a recognised trade union.

70% of trans people believe BBC News is hostile. (And anyone who has listened to Justin Webb knows they are clearly right.) goodlaw.social/kyxv
Poll shows 70% of trans people think BBC News is ‘hostile’
The right wing claims the corporation is ‘pro-trans’, but the people at the sharp end of its coverage disagree. The BBC must stop its attack on trans people.
