The popularity or otherwise of the government has nothing to do with the threat to the independence of the FWA.
Â
This threat is not coming from the usual suspects - the conservatives, it comes from the ALP and it's populist cross bench supporters.
Â
Me, I really think that any award worker should shiver at this development - the threat to FWA independence, after all, if the ALP want to behave in this way and it garners - in your opinion, popular support, then it's not unlikely that the government would be tempted to do the same.
Â
I do not comment on FWA's biases in this debate, whichever way they may lie.
Â
All I say is: biased or not, the FWA's independence should be respected and supported.
Â
That the "champions" of the workers see it differently is altogether ironic. :wacky:
