The old lefties are either so gullible they believe the lying rubbish coming out of the Leftie Propaganda or they are playing possum as they know a big fight is building up over the ABCC.

The Polls are rigged and the Lefties just don't want to know.

Shorty has come a very big cropper over his lies and hypocrisy over the trivial penalty rates stuff which is really a build up to the big fight over the ABCC.

Labor are so desperate they are trying to dig up the long settled HIH issue for Malcolm but as Shorty has a record as long as your arm Mal has a smorgasbord of corruption to select from to shoot silly Billy down.

Quote:

National Union of Workers secretary Gary Maas said despite McCormick Foods reporting a net profit of $472 million last year the company wanted to drop their workers pay considerably.

“But they are saying to their workforce in Clayton South and Moorabbin that they want to take away the paid breaks from afternoon and night shift,” Mr Maas said.

“They want to completely change their rosters and on top of that they want workers to take a 6 per cent wage cut each year for three years.

“Our members say this is unfair — our members demand some security and dignity in their working lives.”

I thought the wealth was supposed to "trickle down?"

Maybe it should be trickled down by force. The workers helped earn that profit, maybe they should share half of it in exchange for that pay cut.

Rather then whining and complaining and being all butt hurt, the workers could eat good food, hit the gym, study in their spare time, approach a venture capital fund and start their own food business, become strong powerful and influential, and stunt on the faces of the bosses they despise.

But alas, thats a lot of work. fat steve think he is entitled to get a job and then cruise, never hustle, never improve, contribute as little as possible. the problem for fat steve is he is no longer competing with fat dave from next door for a job , he is competing with Jimmy Wong. and Jimmy works his ass off, jimmy is aspirational, jimmy never complains,when jimmy looks at steve , steves work ethic is a joke to jimmy. Jimmy (from gungzho province in china) thinsk fat steve is a total pussy. jimmy is going to stunt on steves face.

Seyonara fat steve..... evolutionary pressure in the form of globalisation is here and you just became extinct

What Shorty is really doing is digging his election grave.

All three main polls are at 55:45. “Shorty” might be digging a grave but it is for the corpse of the LNP!

the poll man.. Grin

.. CLINTON was the only winner.. and Brexit would fail...

got it!

There were polls saying Trumpy would win. 55:45 to a govt with a 1 seat majority means that govt is gone!

with the cut in pay they can't afford the gym, let alone the cost of study or starting a business. Cheesy

Yes but if they pay proper wages they won't compete with the arse wipe management like this company has.

We don't need an industry wide race to the bottom.
