The gall of the AWU/AMWU declaring ownership over people. It's the other way around. There is such a thing called freedom of association. This is exactly what is wrong with the old school unionists, the sense of utter entitlement and the lengths they will go to, to prevent their power base being taken away.

All I know is, the ALAEA never introduced A and B scales and the ALAEA never had a platform of negotiating based upon what the metals union got. It's always been the other way around.

I love how they have spun their position. They argue the ALAEA shouldn't represent someone with an 'A' LICENCE.

"union movement is in such disarray that emails can't be sent without them being splashed all over the papers".
hear hear. disgraceful.
