This thread is way too informative, interesting and well written for the likes of auspol. I was heartened to see the Greens' billboards up around the inner west including Jamie Parker's giant face looking up at Leichhardt.

quote:The Intergenerational Report grants 11 mentions to climate change, arguing "governments must continue to plan for the economic and environmental effects of climate change". While it says there may be economic benefits to climate change, it says there may also be falling crop yields and increasing damage to infrastructure from extreme weather. How is this real. How can this actually be released in a 'serious' report by an actual national government.

Yeah but guys, you never know, this continual heating of the earth might mean we could grow mangoes in Tasmania, so swings and roundabouts.

Senor Tron posted:Anyone have any experience with being hired as a contractor? I'm pretty sure BCR recently posted about different emlpoyment options, and being a contractor was an option where you had to be switched on to your rights and obligations. Think it's more of an option for those that are looking to work for themselves, might not be worth it if it's only going to be a one off?

What the gently caress is wrong with you Labor, all your socialist objectives are the things that people actually like and the Liberal party are getting routed for loving up. Gonski, NDIS, the NBN, health funding...don't shy away from it you spineless fucks.

I bet his definition of a racist is highly literal and he's not a racist because Islam is not a race duh. So he can tell those muzzos to go back to Afghanistan and nope not racist, not me. The saddest part of the NSW election is that electricity privatisation is widely opposed by everyone, even a majority of Liberal voters, but Labor have poisoned the well so completely after ICAC that no one will vote for them. The Liberals for all intents are running unopposed, and NSW is going to suffer for it.

The summary on the nightly news was that they got an increase of $60 (I think) a week and annual 3% increases in return for no overtime rates during the week (ha!) and only 50% on Sundays. And the option to 'refuse to work on the weekend' which is a bullshit concession as that should be the status quo anyway. So you've given up the right for more money, in return for being able to not work when you could have earned that money? Sick of all this 'in our modern day world businesses are trading 7 days a week' bullshit too. The point of a standard week is to have common days to rest, go out, socialise etc.. Ask anyone that does shift work or weekend work whether it effects their social life, the answer is obviously that it does.

my stepdads beer posted:What's the rules on unions in workplaces? Can a better union than the SDA start up in the same workplaces? Actually, having re-read the article it doesn't (necessarily) seem as horrible as I thought. The SDA have created a 'template' together with Business SA of what they think are 'fair' conditions for a retail enterprise agreement. They haven't affected the award or anything like that. Enterprise agreements are made directly between the employees and the employer, and they may have a union advising the employees and also helping represent the employees in the process of bargaining. But using a union is entirely up to the employees. So for any group of employees that are currently represented by the Shoppies this is a good time to tell them to gently caress right off, that they don't want to be represented by them and that for any bargaining they do in the future penalty rates will be off the table.

Lid posted:The union alleges Ms Jackson spent more than $660,000 on personal expenses, including holidays, shopping and mortgage payments, as well as $1.07m in separate unauthorised spending. It claims the former national secretary misappropriated $350,399 through unauthorised expenses on her union-issued credit cards, including $170,554 on travel and holidays, $101,783 on shopping, $28,288 on food and alcohol, and $44,537 on entertainment. Wasn't the right wing commentariat bleating on about how Kathy Jackson was a noble whistleblower standing up to corruption?
