All I can say is that we've seen how Abbott treats pensioners. How's he gonna treat workers then? By going after their homes, of course.
From the CFMEU:
The CFMEU said that the Prime Minister Tony Abbott can add another notch to his belt of lies, in light of his backing of legal action against workers in West Australia whose assets are under threat if they are unable to pay penalties.
National CFMEU Construction Secretary Dave Noonan said that Mr Abbott is on the record as saying before the election that workers had nothing to fear from him, and they would find that he was ‘their best friend.’
“He is supporting a move that puts workers assets- including their homes- on the line, for something that happened in 2008.
“This is unprecedented and shows how far his government is prepared to go to hound workers and prevent them from speaking out issues affecting their employment,” he said.
The Federal Government is also pursuing action against 76 workers in Perth.
“This is the beginning of what’s in store for workers in our industry. Mr Abbott has made it very clear that he’s doing the bidding of multinational companies who make billions of dollars in profits.
“He’s making it clear that he is willing to render workers homeless in his quest to teach them that this is the kind of punishment that awaits them if they dare to take a stand.
“With friends such as Mr Abbott, what can we expect from our enemies?” link
