Only a hardened socialist could think that the only way to match Australia is for stronger unions:
Voters will have cottoned onto the fact that this country won’t match Aussie wages without stronger industrial relations laws that give people more power at work.
Riiiight, how about political parties that are willing to dig up our resources instead of opposing it at every opportunity? That is what Australia is doing, they are digging up their mineral wealth and selling it to the world, meanwhile people like Jordan Carter, apparently a “thinker” in the Labour party wants stronger bloody unions to get us on an even keel with Australia.
You know what, a miner earning $175,000 cares about three fifths of five eighths of bugger all about a strong union every week as his pay packet comes rolling in.
