This is perfectly correct. It is the same battle we fought (and won) in the 2000s. Depressing to see that the forces of insufficient light have refused to accept the umpire’s decision and are using their glove puppet Tony Burke to throw us back into chaos and confusion on who is a contractor and who an employee. And in so many other areas as well. It takes a lot to ruin an economy but the union movement is certainly trying its hardest. I just hope the Commonwealth still has some money left to pay pensions when we fully adopt the Argentinian union-populist model of economic management - Glenn Simpson OAM, Retired industrial relations advocate.
