The ABS have just released their figures and union membership numbers are up - both actuals & density. Now would be a good time to join https://www.australianunions.org.au

I won't be verballed by an angry leftist as they are a dime a dozen.... I'll always back the labour movement's in industrial leadership who have to do the deal, not just masterbate in public ❤️
You need to do better. Arbitration is broken and the system sux. As badly as it did a century ago. I don’t think agreement and being polite with employers works. They take advantage.
I agree. Rudd/Gillard 'roll back' of Howard's WorkChoices was woeful. Limitations on industrial action, and penalties on individuals for breaking them, leave the system badly tilted towards employers.
Also set the precedent for anti-protest legislation being wielded against climate campaigners.
And beyond that I still try to push for the rights of workers. I’ve written to Minns more than once about his views, So please don’t drop in to a thread and be an arse about it.

The union *is* the members.
Join yours, get busy, make things better.
Don't be passive and expect improvement.
Go to the meetings, speak up, get informed, get active.
That's the path to improvement.
*Been doing it for 36 years.
Albo seems to be.
Why has the Unions remained quiet about how badly working people are being treated in these programs.
Are you happy to see working people mistreated in these programs?
There's a "we never supported it, but stayed quiet about it".
And a "we never supported it, and put a rocket up Albo to stop it".
Which one are you Sally?
Give Albo a call and tell him to stop this mistreatment of working people.
Are you supporting the Union's silence around the mistreatment of working people?
The mutual obligation program is not fit for purpose.
Do you support it?
