don't forget this culture had the unashamed supoport of the right wing think tanks that permeated the liberal party and created 'workchoices'
QFinsider, all the knowledgable people in the Union arena believe that Dixon thought up Workchoices and then sold it to the Liberal Government of the time. I don't think that things would have been much different if it had been a Labor Government as he has even better links with the ALP. The Unions are very dissapointed with KRudd & his sidekick as the recent changes to IR laws do not completely dismantle Workchoices - it looks like the well heeled employers are still calling the shots.
