Unemployed & CFMEU Push Back

from Stick Together Hosted by Annie McLoughlin, Kristin O Connell, Gorrilla, Warren, Campo

First up the Australian Unemployed Workers Union pushes back as the Federal Liberal National Government tries to Govern using Gossip by saying employers can't get workers because the jobseeker/jobkeeper payments are too high - people are too comfortable and aren't interested in taking jobs. We follow this with a report about the alleged bashing of CFMEU officials on a construction site in the salubrious suburb of Hawthorn Melbourne last week. Seven men, a length of wood, and an unprovoked attack. Just a note the Victorian Trades Hall Council is working with Australian Refugee Council to provide food to residents of the nine public housing towers that have been put into extreme lockdown with 500 police deployed to keep them in their flats because over 100 cases of covid has been found in the towers which house 3000 residents. Money is being raised to support these families by the VHTC. go to https://supportpublichousingresidents.raisely.com/
