I see you are a new ppruner 41 and what a time to join the debate. It seems you have been falsely convinced that taking action will be the downfall of us all. Wasn't it inaction from our union that closed SHM and led to greater offshoring? Would this have happened if we stood up for ourselves at the time and supported our workmates from our line stations? Do we have individual gripes against managers because they are making woeful decisions that have led to more offshoring and loss of many line contracts? Is this enough reason for us to want to act to remove tham?

I think so along with the majority in Adelaide. Bring it on.
