Bop along to this jaunty lil number called “Do you trust Scott Morrison?” #auspol

[CPSU/CSA @cpsucsa]

“This industrial action is a reflection of their desperation for the minister to listen and to act on their cries for help.”

@RikkiHendon said staff were frustrated that pleas for support had not been acted on by the Department or Minister @simonemcgurk

A final word from CPSU/CSA Branch Secretary, @RikkiHendon before heading into the WA Industrial Relations Commission to register Your Union Agreement!

[Rikki Hendon @RikkiHendon]

So this happened in yesterday's budget. Scrapping a policy that suppresses the wages of working Western Australians is a welcome move from the McGowan Labor Government.

Cutbacks without consultation are a recipe for disaster.

[CPSU/CSA @cpsucsa]

“Consultation is a fundamental right that members have fought for and will continue to fight to uphold. This is clearly a short-sighted, rushed, and ill-advised approach to reducing their bottom-line.”

ACTU Congress 2021, COVID-style.

I chose to Zoom in from the comfort of my home. My thoughts are with comrades who attended from lockdown.

Can't wait until we're able catch up in person ✊

Morrison needs to take responsibility for his vaccine rollout 💩 Show

[Rikki Hendon @RikkiHendon]

@markreedwa Watched the Dutch lose the 2010 World Cup final 4 minutes from the end of extra time at a pub in Northbridge. Real kick in the teeth was realising I had to head straight into work in my orange kit on no sleep.

Football is a cruel mistress.

[CPSU/CSA @cpsucsa]

CPSU/CSA Branch Secretary, @RikkiHendon said the issues raised at the inquest were not new:

"Our members are getting to the point where they are at breaking point and are calling for change and genuine investment in the work that they do."

@oldelpaso and Latina Fresh manufacturer @GeneralMills is threatening to strip their workers' conditions and offer lousy pay increases.

#PassOnOldElPaso until they treat their workers with respect!
