And that's before you get to the tendentious premise of the Oz story; that the FWC president can "order" the tribunal's GM to conduct an inquiry. The independent GM might have a different view.

Cracker "exclusive" in The Australian on Friday about an FWC decision on dodgy agreements. Funny though, @workplacexpress reported on it a week earlier. We know Rupert has to find a way to sell his tired old fish-and-chip wrappers, but dubious "exclusive" labels won't help. 1/2

[Workplace Express @WorkplaceXpress]

@steveknottareea Further, lest there be any suggestion that AREEA/AMMA has been singled out, Workplace Express has referred to its unregistered status less than 10 times over more than 20 years, but to unregistered union RAFFWU's similar position more than 40 times in just six years!

[Workplace Express @WorkplaceXpress]

@steveknottareea Workplace Express did not and does not express a view as to the merits of registration; we'll leave that to Mr Knott, but the fact is it is not registered. 3/4

[Workplace Express @WorkplaceXpress]

@steveknottareea Registered organisations are accountable to the FWC and Registered Organisations Commission, which publicly report on their finances and governance. 2/4

[Workplace Express @WorkplaceXpress]

@steveknottareea Workplace Express subscribers are IR experts who know that when we refer to "unregistered", it means not registered under the Fair Work (Registered Organisations) Act. It is a fact that AREEA/AMMA does not have that status, as much as it wants to dance around it. 1/3

Nice "exclusive" The Oz! Funny though, looks very much like last week's ⁦@WorkplaceXpress⁩ story: https://t.co/ITX5m23QGU. Perhaps Rupert should take out a sub!

[Workplace Express @WorkplaceXpress]

@Raecooper1 @IRHaiku There's a high threshold for that! But good effort...

[Workplace Express @WorkplaceXpress]

@Raecooper1 Thank you @Raecooper1 , after 21 years @WorkplaceXpress has finally found its niche as the #IRsocialpages

Terrific "exclusive" in Rupert's The Australian. Appears to cover same territory as last Friday's Workplace Express article: https://t.co/8DtROZFbxP.

[Workplace Express @WorkplaceXpress]

So the AFR had an "exclusive" on Monday on the AWU's membership numbers. Would that be the same story that appeared 3 days earlier on @workplacexpress? And the same story AFR called @workplacexpress about, seeking assistance to find documents? Surely not! https://t.co/E795uWptmY
