What about the white switch wire? dick, that's why you still need an aussie to check your work.lol
See that is what I'm talking about, they're always pumping you for info. lol,lol,lol
Maybe we will soon have to choose between the Chinese and the Fabians...Not much difference really.
What is a life worth in China......If they lose one or two there are millions waiting to take their place.
What's with the Chinese bashing?
Free Trade agreements tend to always hit the manufacturing sector and trades so I take your point that it'll be bad for Australian in those fields. But we should give some credit to the gov't - they're actually much smarter and much more devious than we give them credit for.
While safety and standards are important, obviously... there will be on the job training and inspectors so I wouldn't worry too much. Heck, even I could wire a house - just not the mains - and it's still standing. Even did 2-way switches because joining red to red and black to black just isn't that much fun.
Two wire sparks are a dime a dozen, but real electrical fitting is a little more complex than that.
Repair shops don't necessarily employ electrical fitters/mechanics/installers, but they must be supervised by a qualified lecky.
There will be a lot of head shaking amongst the younger sparks, who have had to go through capstone testing to ply their trade. when they see some lego technician from china playing around with hidden death.

Boy o boy, you have just shown how a little knowledge is a dangerous thing. Were you the previous owner of my current home. I had the wiring checked out by an electrician after purchase. He found that the spar of all things was not connected through the earth leakage safety switch. Some power points were connected to a light circuit with no earths. I appears that the original wiring was right but there had been additions made by someone else.
I'll bet he thought "Heck, even I could wire a house - just not the mains - and it's still standing" and yes it was still standing but a standing time bomb.
Another time I was renting a holiday home on the Gold Coast. Some of the power points weren't working so I went to check the fuses. One had fused. Another had obviously fused and had been "fixed" with a 2inch nail. No chance it would fuse again. Just another standing time bomb.
That's a disgusting attitude.
You ignore that it could be local lives lost due to shoddy electrical wiring or substandard building work.
Interesting you blame Labor for the deaths of roof bat installers, even though it was a state regulated industry, but in this instance you don't give a toss.
As you will note, China executes thousands every year.

Why do seemingly intelligent men and women leave their families to spend more than half the year travelling to Canberra, and spending night after night at electorate and campaign events? Surely there are easier ways to earn a living.
A Letter to My Children is Christopher Pyne's honest account of how a belief in the power of public service, inspired by his crusading ophthalmologist father, led him to pursue a career in politics, driven by the ambition of leaving a legacy for the next generation.
Bernardi's work courageously (in brave words heroically written on fearless paper) promotes the conservative cause and sets out a path to a better Australia through a commitment to faith, family, flag, freedom and free enterprise. Because A) alliteration is good and B) any right-thinking person knows how much better things were when those values held even more sway than they do now. Unless you were poor. Or an atheist. Or had a decent education withheld from you. Or didn’t know the right people. Or had the wrong surname. Or wanted to marry the wrong person. Or had dreams above your station. Or were unlucky enough to be anything other than an inexplicably angry rich, white male.
This volume reminds us that conservative principles - not the populist whims of the left - generate enduring stability, success and strength. For a small few. Meanwhile, why won’t the rest of the population (which is where the word populist comes from Cory) just go away?
That is why we need a conservative revolution. Because even though Cory and his friends are among the most fortunate people on a planet of 7 billion, they are still not as empowered and wealthy as they’d prefer.”
And how is that in any way relevant to letting what could possibly be poorly trained tradies who may or may not have any idea about how to do work to Australian standards?
I know the Govt is arguing we shouldn't do things because they don't do it in Asia, but I'm quite happy we don't shoot dissidents, we have a reasonable right to free speech, heck we can sell our shares when we want and the Govt can't shut down half the stock market. I don't see the need to import labour from a country that has a lackadaisical attitude to safety and human life.
Will you hold Abbott accountable for every death that occurs?
What other country would allow foreigners to do the work of locals? What other country thinks it's a smart idea to bring in labour from overseas when various Govt departments have shown the skills crisis is no more and companies are not having any issues hiring appropriately qualified locals?
I fear the sheeple wont care till we're the underclass in our own country, and by then it'll be too late.
What about all the 1250 deaths of men women and children at sea under Rudd/Gillard...Have you held them accountable?

No way, anything to do with electrocutions is Rudd's fault

Usual piss poor mud raking. You might care to tell us how many refugees perished under Howard's reign?
What do you do Noco, when you are not bagging the Labor party. No prizes for guessing the answer.

Yeh, a job they did on our house the contractor was nowhere to be seen, they had 18 year old apprentices in the roof. The industry itself was the problem.
