Rod Parham said… - Dear Don, I couldn't agree more. One can only hope that Shorten and co. will bear some responsibility for making the Labor Caucus look like King Henry VIII's Court. I take some comfort from the fact that they have taken a wack behind the neck! The challenge of course is that fair dinkum unionists must take up the cudgels and not simply sit back and have it stuck up them! I'm proud to say that in SA the RMD is driving State Council mad with our attempts to get them to see the truth!
The Right dudded workers on the Workcover issue in SA and nowhere will you find a resolution to pursue this unholy alliance with the Farrell faction! ROD
