PM cops Brisbane pub patron abuse for getting served first

A man has hurled abuse at the Prime Minister inside a Brisbane hotel because the nation's leader got served before him at the bar.
Malcolm Turnbull was at the Carindale Hotel on Thursday night for a politics in the pub event.

Police said the man yelled abuse at Mr Turnbull about 7.10pm because he was served before him.
"There was no altercation but the man was yelling abuse, so he was moved away, taken outside and moved on," a police spokesman said.
"He (the man) was fairly intoxicated and fairly apologetic once he realised what he was doing."
The man was issued with an infringement notice for failing to leave a licensed premise.
The Prime Minister's office declined to comment on the actual incident but said the politics in the pub event was not affected and went ahead as planned.

Lol Murdoch Uni in Perth has a Freehills lecture theatre.

IIRC they also funneled about 2.2M in public money to them via a loving stupid civil suit against the NTEU which they eventually dropped because it was pants on head stupid.

Apparently according to Freehills, putting up flyers isn't organising, it's "coercion"

I just came off an employment law placement where we talked about this case quite a bit. IIRC it's more like $2.8 spent by Murdoch and the NTEU won't confirm the amount but said it's either high six figures or low seven, negotiations are actually still ongoing and it's been literally years at this point, and Murdoch didn't drop the suit, they won, in part because the NTEU used moronic tactics that included questioning some ridiculous number of staff (I want to say between 50 and 100) and it didn't prove their point, it only pissed off the judge.

http://www.abc.net.au/news/2018-05-18/hospitality-workers-chase-millions-in-unpaid-superannuation/9772546

quote:

Chad Parkhill is still trying to get $2,500 in unpaid super after his seven months at the Brunswick restaurant and bar, Host Dining.

When Chad decided to approach the Fair Work Ombudsman to pursue his unpaid super, he said the restaurant's co-owner Nedim Rahmanovic told him: "Good luck with that."

Mr Rahmanovic admitted to the ABC that he owed "very small amounts [of superannuation] to a lot" of staff, and "more to others".

"That's something we are trying to get on top of," he said.

He blamed the "extreme pressures of running a small business" for not paying employees their full entitlements.

"It's purely a matter of survival. People are only prepared to spend small amounts on food," he said.

The ABC put questions to Alimentari cafe, asking why Pamela and another employee were paid in cash, at below the award rate, and whether super and tax were ever paid on their wages.

In a statement, cafe co-owner Linda Davis said: "In the past, we paid people in cash while they were trialling with the business, at what we believed were legal trial rates of pay. While this practice may be common in the industry, it is not how we operate today."

I'm a lot less sympathetic to small business owners than I used to be. Replace them all with Nandos.
