Arjay with all respect it strikes us that you have not stuggled if you have then you truly have not suffered yet under this Heartless Howard Government. People have to suffer until they realise as they did under the years of that infamous Baroness M Thatcher the milk snatcher. People living under bridges in cardboard boxes. This is just what Howard is creating here dividing the nation between the I'm alright Jacks and the no-hopers. The West Australian Newspaper has the audacity to blame the States. Howard has been removing money from Government Education and Health towards private Education and Health by stealth. The victims are no longer hidden. As Howard has copied Thatcher with every policy, privatisation, war and scapegoats being Trade Unions and Immigrants.

Dear Belly
Keep up the good work you are precious.
To listen and read quotes from yourself and others like you, gives all Austalians heart that this world is not built upon greed selfishness and the unacceptable face of capitalism. The class struggle will always be with us it is up to the rank and file to agitate, educate and organise bearing in mind if you fudge you fail if you fight you win.

Thanks Bronco Lane, from little things big things grow.
I went on Saturday morning, just a bit concerned, not for me but my mate the trolley pusher.
I need not have been worried, no one came.
No one wanted to know about welfare fraud.
About half adult minimum wage being paid.
About false names to avoid tax.
About the tragic something is better than nothing reasons some work like this.
My work to end this has 12 months behind me and maybe that many years in front but this battle must be won.
Each day more battle worn true trade unionist die or just fade away from the movement.
And lies and a hand full of idiots who while part of the union movement can not stop by the actions they take defaming the union movement.
We, those who know and understand the history of our movement.
Those who value its past and future, must never stop fighting for fairness.
We must take on change that improves unions as a close friend.
And remember members are the only reason we exist.

You are right.
Trade Unions have become the victims of their own success.
1.Forming an alternative Political Party to those puppets that serve Big Business.
2. Legislation for better working conditions for all for example Occupational Health and Safety. Equal Pay for Women which the Conservative Parties fought against.
3. Affordable Education Health and Transport that is slowly being eroded by the Conservatives.
The list goes on and on the youth are not aware because social history is not taught at school. We now see the Howard syndrome within every walk of life with greed and selfishness. Hoon behaviour, Greedy Landlords, No give way on the roads dog eat dog no consideration or courtesy for neighbours or fellow road users this is the Howard Way. Whenever anybody told lies we would say they were telling us Porkies but now the slang is not Porkies they would be telling us Howards.

Spotlight have conceded that Individual Workplace Agreements are difficult for employers to dictate. Many Spotlight consumers and customers were boycotting Spotlight because of their treatment towards their work force. It is now alright for customers to return to Spotlight now that their staff are now returning to fair pay and conditions.
