Q. if every employee owns shares in a company, do they need to also be represented by a union?
Octopus energy thinks not & are resisting moves by the GMB towards a voluntary recognition agreement for those staff who think a union would help them represent their interests in the speedily growing energy firm.
Given Greg Jackson (Octopus' found/CEO) is a Labour supporter might this get a little awkward (not with Blue Labour but with Labour's likely new leader)?

Why These Farm Workers Went On Strikeโand Why It Matters
Months of strikes and organizing in Washington led to the first U.S. farmworker union in years.ยGeorge Zornick (The Nation)
I think (and sometimes write) about this a lot. I'm the founder of a #workercoop, and I actively promote the idea to others. The difficulty is that worker co-ops tend to be small, and the most problematic corporations, almost by definition, are large. Replacing them with a network of small and medium-sized worker co-ops is easier said than done. Teaming up with #unions is a big step in the right direction, but there are still some large hurdles to clear.
