Fair Work - Crook Deck: High Stakes Poker

[joea]

Well there is movement in the courts.

This whole saga has turned into sorting out the unions instead of the corruption in HSU.
I bet a few bottles of wine have been consumed by these d**k heads down south sorting this out.
I mean discussing where to go and how to get there.

Too right joea, too right.

My contacts in Sussex St. tell me there is some panic as a union is considering defecting from the ALP to the Greens. I don't believe it will happen, but who knows in these strange times.

I was east of Mount Carbine this week helping a young lady of my acquaintance move, but was in a hurry home so didn't make it to Miallo. a beautiful spot.

I hope for Australia sake Kathy is legit. Having not met the woman, I can only say that she stands up for
what she believes in. And that is her Union.

This is an article I just read.
It is all very interesting. But I would be happy with the truth!
I have accepted that the "truth" about this HSU fiasco, will never fully come out..
I think (from what I have read), she has been under serious pressure for some time.

I just do not think that the people involved in the corruption will shake her off.
I think these Labor politicians are a lot "dirtier" than we can imagine.

You can try my "chili prawn pasta" if you like.

Joe we need a Royal Commission on the unions going back to Gillard and the AWU up to the HSU.

The older generation were raised by their family's, with the understanding of right and wrong, as black or white!
Later "gray appeared".
The end result is that the "gray" band is larger than "back and white" combined.

However it appears in politics, in the case of the HSU the "gray band" is almost an unknown quantity.

Alan Jones is on the case Wilson and Gillard up to some hanky panky.
Remember theses are you leaders and people to be admired... from afar like any where but Australia.

Well I suppose it will dribble out if we wait long enough.
Update on HSU money. And where it went.
Thompson is now getting overshadowed.

Bill Shorten on ABC 7:30 Report last night:

"But again, in answer to your question, I want to stress: the vast majority of Australian trade unions, trade unionists, people representing unions, are - work very hard and their conduct is exemplary, and I don't think that a few rotten eggs, a few rotten apples should be allowed to describe the whole of the labour movement in Australia."

Bill is as delusional as Julia.

What a joke.

It fits in with her character as PM.

Yes, there's a cultural problem there.

FWA is a Gillard legislation...

My bold:

Frank Marks ... (was) a judge of the Industrial Relations Commission of NSW… His farewell address from the bench last month was not the usual hail-fellow-well-met one. Marks ...said that rather than trying to settle disputes, the Fair Work Act actually encouraged industrial action between parties and then protected that industrial action.
