Can people please put the country in the title. I have read multiple headlines thatjust say "court decides" with no explanation of what court or jurisdiction. Australia is not the only country where the employment status of Uber drivers is under question

I got worried but I saw the .nz link and assumed correctly it was new Zealand

But that wouldn't drive clickbait engagement now would it?

You're right. The New Zealand Herald clearly does not talk about what country their stories about hoping you will click their links.

Truly dastardly.

I'm more referring to the points whore that posted it

How does clicking the link help him be a 'points whore'?

Is there something I don't know about voting on this site?

It looks like there's something you don't know about social media addicts in general.

No. I've just been on the internet since before it had pictures. The two look very similar.
