SM,
As I've cited earlier - (and taken from a variety of sources) - "the real value of attacking trade unions for the Abbott government is tactical. The government can go after the funding base that supports much of Australia's labour politics and it can try to link misconduct directly to senior ALP figures such as Federal ALP Leader - Bill Shorten." It's a win/win situation for the Coalition. The previous Cole Royal Commission and the ABCC did not prove itself particularly effective at reforming the supposedly corruption-prone industry. As cited earlier - and confirmed by political commentators: "The ABCC was pretty successful in its prosecutions record, but most of its actions were for minor breaches of employment law, such as unlawful industrial action. It did not uncover systematic illegality or entrenched corruption." I can see that you want to continue espousing your party's line. I shall leave you to it Posted by Foxy, Thursday, 27 February 2014 10:38:39 AM

Dear Johan (OUG),
Bless You. You have a good heart. I shall see you on another thread. I prefer to keep things on a more professional level and choose to move on from this one. Posted by Foxy, Thursday, 27 February 2014 10:45:40 AM

Foxy,
Once again you quote the faecal matter opinion pieces from the "New Matilda" from the far left intellectual light weight Ben Eltham. If the unions were as pure as the driven snow, the inquiry driven by an independent judge would not enable the coalition to link any Labor MP to crimes, nor damage the union movement. The only damage to the unions / ALP will be from exposure of their criminal conduct. The hysterical reaction to the commission is admission that there is plenty of dirt to find.

Foxy,
01/29/14--18:00: (chan 11047405) <The real value of attacking trade unions for the Abbott government is tactical. By attacking powerful unions like the CFMEU, the government can go after the funding base that supports much of Australia’s progressive politics. It can also link union misconduct directly to senior ALP figures, many of whom are of course factionally aligned to the CFMEU, such as Victorian Opposition Leader Daniel Andrews, or the AWU, such as federal ALP leader Bill Shorten.> http://lln20.rssing.com/chan-11047405/latest.php The rest owes its existence to a New Matilda article of 30 Jan 2014, which I will not bother to cite.

SM,
You use your sources as you see fit and I do likewise. You refer to my sources as "faecal" matter and I regard your sources as supporting the will of its powerful right-wing owner - and totally fake, phoney, and BS. My sources base their information on facts - yours on innuendo and attacks. But to each his/her own. Seeing as no matter what I say - or whose opinion I cite - you shall reject it or refer to it as "faecal" matter (you're probably more familiar with things "faecal" than I am - look at the person who's giving you support curently). And seeing as I find what you say - fake, phoney and BS. There's no further point in carrying on this discussion. Cheers. Posted by Foxy, Thursday, 27 February 2014 1:16:07 PM
