Brexit OUT of EU: What happens now?

[wayneL]

No way. The blue collar workers are the apolitical swinging voters who deliver Govts from both sides of the political arena.

They voted Howard in - they voted Howard out. They voted Rudd in - they voted Rudd out.

They aren't attached to any political persuasion. They outsmart the sycophants every time.

Yep I'll go along with that, but the postmodernists will have to depostmodernize themselves and become a true Labour Party again

 

[moXJO]

Look at all the threads lighting up here about brexit and Trump
Nothing but the sound of crickets on the local mob who the majority here no doubt elected
Bash the left elsewhere should make you feel better about your choices lolz

I whinge about them all the time. But if I had to pick between authoritarian left, or right- then it will be the right.

Yep bankers breaking federals laws (only 25 million times) and get caned by picking up a lazy $2.7 mil on the way out bankers doing it tough how will he survive.

Unions fight for safety and protection of workers rights (note Marxists left wing extremists like nurses and firefighters) and the Coalition go after them..... what do you get here outrage maybe......nope fcking crickets until some unheard of fringe MP, feminist drop kick says some thing stupid.

The great swindle goes on carefully camouflaged by inflaming cultural outrage

Ah yes, the good old days, when the Labor Party was full of workers that came up from the rank and file, before they were hijacked by the intellectual ladder climbers.
It really is strange, that now Labor gets the major swings toward them in the affluent suburbs, obviously they are getting the message over to some.

Well, I didn't vote for Scomo, and still dissatisfied with the Liberals. Probably will never vote for them again.

But I thank God every single day your mob of wreckers didn't get in. We got bad, instead of freakin' disaster.

Can not agree more.The comments in the guardian after the win of Boris were as pathetic as predictable
He did not win, we had more votes, he is illegitimate, not kidding have a look yourself.
In my older youth, the Pravda was the model of propaganda, every one was laughing at how dumb it was,jokes etc
You read the guardian or watch the ABC and the China Daily looks like a virtuous model of information

MPs both sides have sold out. Pretty sure labor mps were hooked onto Chinese money as well.
There was no fricken way shortens labor was electable.

Its been a long time since unions were on the workers side. All the heads are bloody lawyers. Fricken chardonnay problems.

Theres a reason why leftists government is losing ground across the world. Its because they are delusional. Nobody gives a frig about gender awareness or free handouts to lazy sobs, or any of the other commie bs they are sprouting. The workers have reached the limit. People want to get ahead not pay for other peoples problems. And they want govt to get out of their lives

I'm not saying thats what the coalition brought, but they won the unwinnable election for a reason.

 

[Humid]

Union sites have better money and conditions also being able to bring up safety concerns without the fear of the bullet

So you voted Greens?

This is the crap I usually hear from people who take the money and conditions but are too tight to pay their fees
Or “I used to be in the union but they screwed me”

Hell would freeze over first, and living in Qld, not likely to happen anytime during this current Holocene epoch... or even during the Quaternary!

I did jobs for a few of the top rankers in the unions. And I know what a few of the shtbags got up to.

Never had a wage job. I was taught by family and always had my own company.

Unions barely look after their own members let alone anyone else. Theres a lot of those stories of "unions screwed me" as well. Unions won't go against the big companies that feed em. Hows those membership numbers going?

It is interesting that the share market and British Pound have rallied since the election, obviously the doom and gloom prophecies by the media, weren't taken on board by the markets.

You back in business Moxjo, or is this just sour grapes?

I'd say those membership numbers are at record lows.
Which just happens to co-inside with rampant wage theft from big and small companies

Seems to me the employers are even better at screwing the employees than the unions are.

Fair work Australia sorts it out fairly quick. Hospitality is notorious for underpayment. But its not that hard to make a complaint.

Workcover are some of the worse fkers you will deal with. They try and grind you into the dust.

Easier to get your union to deal with it - so I guess that's the difference

Not always...
More than a few stories of people I directly know. One in particular stands out, injured himself at work. Then a few of the others engaged in bullying while he was on light duties. Really weird stuff like deleting work off his computer and other crap. He actually caught them on camera as the higher ups wouldn't believe him.
Union was brought in and they left him out to dry (no surprises there). He ended up with severe depression on top of it all. Wife found him strung up in the garage about a year back.
There was zero support from the union. Whole thing was just sickening on all fronts from employer-employees-union-workcover.
Another mate is going through workcover claim at the moment. Employer has just claimed responsibility but workcover have literally tried to grind him into the dust.

 

[PZ99]

As you say "Not always". Insurance companies don't always entertain claims either.
But it's better than nothing - and nothing is what the remaining 90% of workers have.
No wonder the economy is going down the toilet.

My union has negotiated better conditions from my employer for 28 years.

Of course, non union members get the same benefits despite playing no role in attaining them.

IMV that's the norm, not the exception.
