TOPIC:

This bloke is unbelievable, it's his way or the highway. Typical low life lawyer threatening nurses and female nurse union leader with fines because he doesn't get how anyone could disagree with him. Now the Industrial Relations Commission has incredibly deregistered the Australian Nurses Federation.

This is an absolute disgrace. Hopefully the Firefighters and Police follow the path of our nurses. You are a bully and a thug dressed in a suit McGowan. You are a bloody disgrace. There will be blood on your hands everytime there is a death as a result of understaffing in the hospitals.

FFS you Liberals get your shit together, get rid of those Christian nutjobs within your party and start attracting the right people. You will be a shoe in to overturn this clown and his arrogant government if you do.

Heavy handed stuff with the threat to deregister.

Police won't do much mate, they are subject to regulations just like ADF, cannot strike and industrial action is very limited.

A bloke Gary Adshead is speaking to just labelled the McGowan government a bully for now threatening legal action against Fiona Stanley. He said anyone who disagrees with his government faces being threatened with legal action.

IRC have sensibly backed down from deregistering the ANF. Without a doubt in my mind Mr McGoo has his dirty little fingerprints all over this. If only we had a votable opposition by the time the next election comes around.

Can you believe that's not until March 2025? I pray that McGowan is found to have committed a sackable offence before then.

Interesting theory DD. While I may not be a fan of Mr M, I don't think his powers reach that far where he can tell the industrial relations commission what to do. After all they are an independent tribunal responsible for breaking deadlocks or disputes of industrial relations. 

If as reported yesterday the union didn't follow advice as outlined by industrial relations, then you would expect them to step in regardless of who is in charge.

Having said all that, after recently having a family member in hospital, Nurses don't get paid enough for what they do, but neither do cops, teachers, prison guards and most other people in the workforce that support the community.

Wholeheartedly agree! We are stuck with this Red Stain for some time to come yet! Not sure the Libs will ever recover?
A sticking point for SNEAKY is if he gives the Nurses a pay rise, teachers automatically get another salary increase commensurate with the Nurses. The government can’t afford it and remember the Police will effectively get a salary raise too.
If Labor think socialism is the best fit for all…,,. Why don’t they piss off to China for good and leave us to our democracy that encourages citizens to work hard to achieve a successful life. We have far to many people with no incentive to work because of generous handouts.

By the sound of it FF2 you seem better suited to Authoritarian rule and less to Democracy. Maybe you should piss off to China rather than democratically elected political parties LOL.
