ALP is there for the party and that is partly Union based.
Â
Just ask thw AWU workers just how much the ALP supports them!
Â
On the other hand the criminal CFMEU seem somewhat more supported.
Hmmmmmmmmmmm
Â
Hmmmm - rampant wage theft in non unionised workplaces and we have sour grapes about unions ?
Â
I put a higher proice in your first reply there mate

Amazing - yet another couple of instances of absolute inability to see any fault in Union leadership - but it's fact and it's out there.
Â
Your clear subscription to the notion that "the enemy of my enemy is my friend" notion is noted and points to a clear class struggle mentality where none exists or needs exist -
Continual dwindling of non government employment unionised workers numbers says that people have already voted with their feet to dismiss your position.
In the real world folks act through self interest and the majority just don't agree with your defence of Union Leadership.

It all comes down to relevance mate. Union leadership issues are small beer compared to wage theft which is a global practice and has been for a decade or more. Continual dwindling of unionised workers = continual proven cases of workers being ripped off illegally by their employers. Your viewpoint of defending / deflecting employee theft by attacking unions is not shared by folks in the real world or even the law.
Â
Of course it's a clear class struggle - it's a struggle between criminals who owe money and victims who are owed it.
Â
I don't know any law abiding citizen apart from yourself that thinks that's a good thing.

Â
Your interpretation of my post is somewhat flawedÂ
Â
Not liking white does not mean liking black - if you get the idea!!
Â
On the other hand your consistent refusal to accept any criticism of bad Union leadership is somewhat revealing - it exists and should be recognised.
Â
The notion that some folks (employers) are all bad and that other gfolks ( Union Leaders) are all good is to say the least disingenuous.
Â
Proven cases there are indeed of employer ripoffs - similarly there are significant proven cases of Union Leader crime - often against there own membership.
Â
I'm an absolute supporter of the membership - just wish all leaders behaved as though they supported them too.

Â
Of course it is. Who is making this notion? Not me.
Â
I said union leadership issues are small beer compared to wage theft which is a global practice.
Â
Small beer doesn't mean I'm claiming the glass is empty :beer:
Â
Employer ripoffs are more dangerous because there's more of it and it's harder to detect :fishie: :fishie:

AN ATHLETE has been banned from an all-you-can-eat sushi eatery after he ate almost 100 plates of fish.
I like this bit > "Mr Bobrowski, who works as a software engineer by day, follows an extreme diet where he does not eat for 20 hours and then eats âuntil Iâm full,â - The âuntil Iâm fullâ part is apparently what drove the restaurant to ban the athlete"
https://www.news.com.au/lifestyle/food/e...33c266ee19
So he spends maybe 2 hours noshing / taking no prisoners and the other 18 making the S-Bend his best friend

AIR Force pilots are being told to think twice before bombing bridges in case this forces civilian women to walk further for water and firewood.
A âGender in Air Operationsâ doctrine, introduced last year, orders RAAF personnel to consider actions through a âgender perspectiveâ .
Its foreword by Air Commodore Stephen Edgeley, the director of general strategy and planning, says embracing a âgender perspectiveâ will enhance operational capability.
An example is: âIf the target is a bridge ⦠this same bridge may also provide the only route for the local population to gather supplies such as water and firewood. Although destroying this target may provide a military advantage ⦠the second-order effect may mean that, due to the gendered social roles, women need to travel further afield, on unfamiliar and less secure, well-known or well-lit routes to gather water and firewoodâ , leaving them at âan increased risk of sexual and gender-based violenceâ .
The doctrine is being policed by âgender advisersâ , who accompany RAAF personnel into conflict zones.
The NSW president of the Australian Peacekeeper and Peacemaker Veterans Association , Bruce Relph, said top brass were trying to âmake the buck stop with the pilotâ .
He said: âThis is going to make the pilot hesitate, afraid he might be charged with war crimes, and that puts his life in danger ⦠the enemy will not be hesitating to shoot him down.â
Former soldier Bernard Gaynor said: âIt seems the politically correct agenda has yet to reach peak insanity inside Defence. Pilots are now required to consider feminist theory before dropping bombs. Gender advisers are now deployed on operations,â he said.
âWe need our defence force to train combat warriors, not social justice warriors.â

So we all saw the national vegan protest. Check out what happened to this poor guy.Â
Â
Â
An Australian grazier who runs a charity taking hay to drought-stricken farmers has revealed he has been inundated with phone calls from furious vegan protesters.
Â
Farrell said that one woman phoned him and tried to claim that lettuces are alive. He said he answered every call because that's what I do â and the Sheila goes she didn't like the last post I done on Facebook because lettuces have got a heartbeat⦠Lettuce. Has. A. Heartbeat,' he said.

"Navy cannot march in the dark!
RITA PANAHI
SOMETHING is wrong when members of the Australian Navy are banned from marching in an Anzac Day dawn service owing to occupational health and safety concerns. What hope do they have of defending the country if the fear of âtripping in the darkâ during a march has their superiors in a flap?
If a peaceful march to mark the sacrifice of their predecessors is too dangerous, how will they cope under fire or when called upon to neutralise hostile adversaries?
Mind you, the Australian Defence Force has no qualms about members marching in the Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras parade, and shares footage of this on its official website. Last time I checked, the Mardi Gras parade is at night. So why is it that is worthy while a traditional Anzac Day dawn service is too risky? Just what kind of woke simpletons are making these calls on behalf of the men and women who have signed up to serve their country?
I first read about this madness in a little publication called the South Coast Register, which reported that âin a break with tradition ⦠naval personnel wonât march at the Greenwell Point dawn serviceâ .
âIt is understood an occupational health and safety issue is the reason, with personnel not allowed to march in the dark due to safety concerns. One of the highlights of the dawn services at Greenwell Point is when current serving navy personnel join ex-Diggers in making the solemn 450 metre march from Greenwell Pointâs main street to Anzac Park overlooking the Shoalhaven River.
âMassive crowds always greet the march at Anzac Park â at the Anzac commemorations in 2015, it was estimated 10,000 people surrounded the park to witness the event,â the report said.
The report went viral and soon senators and former ADF personnel wanted answers.
Senator Concetta Fierravanti-Wells tweeted: âRita, @SenatorAbetz & I just asked questions about this! Details to be provided on notice but assurance given by (Chief of Navy Australia Michael Noonan) @CN_Australia that CO Albatross has come to an arrangement with RSL!â (HMAS Albatross is the naval air station).
The response from Defence only made it worse. A spokesman confirmed Navy personnel would not march, but would line up and wait for the march to arrive. âSafety was a factor in the decision not to march,â he said. âThe instruction to HMAS Albatross personnel, while different to what may have occurred in the past, has been provided cognisant of procedures traditionally observed by service personnel attending dawn services, and the particular physical and environmental conditions expected at Greenwell Point on April 25, 2019.â
This revelation follows earlier media reports that ADF brass have ordered their underlings to consider âgender perspectiveâ in everything they do. The insanity isnât restricted to the Navy: the same woke dogma is being drilled into other ADF personnel, including RAAF pilots who are told to consider âGender in Air Operationsâ . The Daily Telegraph revealed the doctrineâs foreword, by RAAFâs director of general strategy and planning, Stephen Edgeley, said embracing the âgender perspectiveâ would enhance operational capability.
âIf the military target is a bridge in a community that is being used as a main route by the enemy to transport weapons, this same bridge may also provide the only route for the local population to gather supplies such as water and firewood,â the doctrine says.
âAlthough destroying this target may provide a military advantage against the enemy, the secondorder effect may mean that, due to the gendered social roles, women need to travel further afield, on unfamiliar and less secure, wellknown or well-lit routes to gather water and firewoodâ , which could leave them at âan increased risk of sexual and gender-based violenceâ .
And last year we had ADF personnel encouraged to paint their fingernails pink to show their support for âequalityâ .
Itâs only a matter of time before woke warriors rename the ADF. Not only is âAustralianâ exclusionary but âForceâ suggests toxic masculinity. Even âdefenceâ is problematic, as any gender studies academic will tell you.
Perhaps we should call it The Inclusive Diversity Circle. Thatâs sure to scare the enemy.
Our security is in good hands.

Transacting $10,000 or more in cash could make you a criminal under proposed law

Â
Or to put it another way... "extraordinary penalty" for the use of legal tender.
Â
And this is coming from a Govt purporting to be smaller with less interference and more personal freedom?

AS far as I know cash transactions in Q have been limited to less than $10k in the sense that any greater figure must be applied for in writing and advised to the government.
That was the case more than 20 years ago. I had to deposit $6k cash one day and $4k the next to avoid scrutiny.
Â
And yes it was a legal transaction for some earthmoving parts.
