Turnbull plays chicken with workers' rights
Last week the Turnbull Government laid a threat down to the Senate - pass the anti-worker ABCC Legislation or face a double dissolution election on 2 July. It is very likely that the election will be going ahead where cross benchers have stood up to defend the rights of construction workers not to be singled out and targeted by an Royal Commission style building cop.
As a Government owned enterprise, federal elections are a key time for our Union to secure public and political support for Australia Post and its employees - as always the fight is to ensure Australia Post remains in public hands. In the weeks ahead Branches and members will be hearing from Divisional Office as we finalise plans to maximise political outcomes for our members over the election period.
