Unions have done a lot for the average joe worker. Thats why there here to stay. Gov are currupt at all levels. They in themselves are a "union" as such. They vote themselves for the benifit of themselves.
One thing ive learnt is that the gov doesnt like competition. Labor has similar views to the unions. Thats why they get along.

Libs are rich wanks for the rich wanks. They dont like workers standing up for themselves. They want to dictate and control. The ABCC is a joke. Ill forfiet my benifits when the gov forfiet theirs. Untill then ill stand and fight.

Bring on the super union.

Get realistic - unions are a hangover from the dark days of the Tariff Walls when they ruled the roost and could bring the hole country to a screeching halt.

Once the Tariff Walls came down with Senator Button's help the unions went into a steady decline because now if they monstered a business it would simply close down and leave Australia and then Australia would import inferior copies of the same stuff. Think Ford and Holden.

now the Tariff Walls are gone Australians have a choice of buying here or importing much cheaper goods from overseas and so all the unions succeed in doing with their unsustainable wage pushes is making the local business uncompetitive wrt their overseas competitors and so the local business is forced by the sabotage and extortion of the unions to close down.

So the corrupt evil unions are now the enemy of local industry and employment and must be CRUSHED for Australia to survive.

Union membership is now just a tiny 10% and falling but the unions have developed clout thru corrupt manipulation of legal systems and corrupt sourcing of funds from industry super funds and blatant coercion of funds from local industry under threat of sabotage.

The TURC revealed only a tiny amount of the fowl corruption the equally fowl unions are involved in but now Australia is going to get even with the fowl unions and CRUSH them forever.

To plaintively say the unions make work places safe is nonsense as the Fair Work is responsible for this.

The rapacious grasping of the unions is artificially increasing the cost of living here in Australia as our cost of production is artificially increased to levels uncompetitive with our Asian competitors.

With their tiny membership of only 10% the unions are now interested ONLY in looking after themselves and care very little about the actual workers.

Bull S.'s abuse of CleanEvent and Chiquito Mushrooms clearly shows this

.


Now stand by for the ferals to come hurtling out of the Dark Side.

Geez the ferals from the Dark Side are out in force denying and lying as they always do and Mr Smith shows how childish he really is with his silly copying and xing out ineffective shambles.

but Malcolm is undeterred as he has might and right on his side.

Another election winner for Malcolm.

Just wait till the election looms when the Fair Go will unleash an unprecedented awareness campaign for the Australian people after which nobody would even think of voting Labor.



Malcolm Turnbull vows to curb ‘lawless’ unions

Malcolm Turnbull has vowed to block the merger of two “lawless” unions as the government plans introduce legislation to parliament that would force the industrial umpire to apply a public interest test for any union mergers.

The Australian revealed this morning the the federal government would move to block the creation of a CFMEU and Maritime Union of Australia “super union” trying to pass legislation that would require further scrutiny on union mergers from the Fair Work Commission.

Mr Turnbull said this morning his government would “stand up for the rule of law” in the workplace.

“There are very real concerns about these two unions. Both of them have shown a long-term disregard for the law, they’ve been essentially lawless,” Mr Tunrbull told Melbourne radio station 3AW.

“One of the reasons they feel they’ve been able to get away with it is because of their size, so why would you want two already lawless unions who are big, to become even bigger?

“We’ll give the Fair Work Commission the power to assess whether it’s in the public interest for any mergers of unions to take place. It’s not dissimilar to the way the ACCC can approve mergers between companies or not. I think it’s manifestly in the public interest that we stand up for the rule of law.”

Finance Minister Mathias Cormann said the public-interest test would work similar to the scrutiny companies were given before proposed mergers were approved by the competition watchdog.

“We consider that a merger between the CFMEU and the Maritime Union of Australia, both unions with a bullying and militant and intimidating culture, is a real threat to our economy,” Mr Cormann said.

“It is a threat to productivity, it is a threat to jobs and what is proposed is that there should be a public interest test for the Commission that is making judgments on whether or not such a merger is in a public interest.”

Earlier this morning, Bill Shorten described Mr Turnbull as “desperate” for claiming the Labor leader could be in jail under the government’s new building code.

Mr Shorten hit back at the Prime Minister’s attack after legislation passed through the Senate on Wednesday night which banned secret payments from business to unions.

“I think that latest outburst is a lot more about him than me; these are the comments of a man under great pressure and he is desperate,” Mr Shorten told ABC radio.

“Don’t you think its remarkable that this government is so obsessed that they want to pass laws which just go after unions or particular individuals? I am very proud of my record of standing up for workers.”

Mr Shorten said that under the “bad laws” a business would not be able to compensate the widow of a builder who died at work.

“A worker dies on a building site or a work site, the union asks the company to pay something towards the widow, that would be illegal under this new law,” Mr Shorten said.

Yesterday, Mr Turnbull said the Labor leader’s opposition to the laws showed he defended union corruption.

“Here is a wholly owned subsidiary, a union that has no regard for the law, that is flagrantly breaching the law,” Mr Turnbull said yesterday.

“Bill Shorten has been defending, tooth and nail, corruption and secrecy, defending big unions and union officials doing dodgy deals with employers at the expense of the workers.”

Two years, too late, Malcolm. Abbott presented you, on a plate, the results of the RC. You did nothing, even though the Unions and Shorten came out of it, smelling like dead eels. You simply let it go. And now, with your job looking increasingly shaky all of a sudden, you are going to do something, about these burglars. One can but wonder, what drives you, other the thought of losing your job.
