Opportunities for Change

This week I spoke with Chris Spindler an AMWU organizer to follow up on the workers at the Alstom rail workshop in Ballarat and the hundreds of Yarra Trams maintenance workers who have been affected by payroll discrepancies since July. We’ll also hear from Colin Long, the Just Transitions organizer with the Victorian Trades Hall Council about the challenges involved in transitioning away from fossil fuels and how the pandemic presents us with a unique opportunity for change.
