  • Carnival Cruises: End Exploitation on the Australian Coast
    Dear Josh, We know that your business is ultra-profitable.  We know that you're one of the world's wealthiest men.  Ordinary people in Australia will not accept American Billionaires exploiting Cruise Ship crew on our Coast. You can stop this situation spiraling out of control. Sit down with the Maritime Union of Australia and negotiate an Agreement that delivers Carnival Crew the dignity and respect they deserve.

  • Respect Experience. Protect Wellbeing. Act Now at Brisbane City Council
    We, the undersigned, write to express our deep concern regarding the recent directive requiring long-serving employees to obtain additional qualifications within short and, in many cases, unachievable timeframes, or risk being deemed unsuitable for the roles they have successfully performed for many years. While we appreciate the value of ongoing professional development, these new requirements overlook the real human impact on employees who have dedicated years of service to the Council. Many of the affected employees have decades of experience and are award recipients, change leaders, and highly respected contributors within their teams. Their commitment, practical knowledge, and proven capability have been vital to the Council’s success. The introduction of mandatory qualifications without adequate transition arrangements is creating a significant psychosocial risk within the workplace. Employees are experiencing heightened anxiety and uncertainty about their ongoing job security, despite many having excelled in their roles for decades. For those now expected to undertake study, the burden is substantial—balancing coursework with full-time workloads, family responsibilities, and personal commitments places real pressure on their wellbeing. The prospect of demotion or being deemed unsuitable for their role, despite long histories of strong performance, is understandably distressing and perceived as punitive rather than supportive or developmental. To ensure fairness, maintain morale, and uphold the values of Council, we request that Council: 1. Implement a realistic transition phase, allowing employees adequate time to obtain any required qualifications. 2. Provide genuine support, including paid study leave, flexible arrangements, and financial assistance for course fees. 3. Recognise prior experience, capability, and service as an alternative pathway where formal qualifications are not essential to effective performance. 4. Introduce a grandfathering arrangement for employees who are unable to attain the qualifications despite genuine efforts, ensuring they are not disadvantaged. 5. Commit to salary maintenance for employees who do not hold the new qualifications but have demonstrated long-term competence in their roles. These measures will help reduce unnecessary stress, rebuild trust, and demonstrate the Council’s commitment to valuing its workforce—not just for their qualifications, but for their years of knowledge, skill, and contribution. We ask Council to work with us to implement a fair and respectful approach that supports employees through this change rather than penalising them for circumstances beyond their control.

  • Hands off our State Library!
    The acting State Library Victoria management are rushing dozens of changes to library operations that will degrade and diminish core library services. These will gut the reference library staff (from 21 down to 10) and replace them with “self service” options; and pour taxpayer money into expensive “digital innovation” projects and “experiences” that few people use.  Nobody is against innovation or tech in our libraries – we are against the gutting of core services and people, and replacing them with unspecified tech modifications without any clear plan or benefit for the Victorian community. AI cannot do what our highly skilled library staff can. Cutting them will make it harder to engage with the collection and reduce access to experienced help, and overload those remaining.  We call on the Minister and acting State Library Victoria executive leadership to withdraw any proposed changes and hold a public meeting , where Victorians can have a say in how their library is run.

  • Medicare for Seasonal Workers
    I welcome the opportunity for people from the Pacific Islands and Timor Leste to come and work in Australia on the Pacific Australia Labour Mobility (PALM) scheme, to earn money for themselves, their families and their communities. People on the PALM scheme must have private health insurance. The private health insurance system is di­fficult to navigate. Too often, it has acted as a barrier to people on the PALM scheme gaining access to necessary medical care. I ask that people on the PALM scheme be given access to Medicare.

  • COLLIE WORKERS DESERVE CERTAINTY
    AMWU members in Collie’s coal mines and power stations have kept WA lights on for over 100 years. But now we’re facing the closure of the coal industry with no certainty about when new industry will start.   Collie’s closure timeline is:   • Griffin Coal (~400 jobs) – Mining leases and state funding expire in June 2026  • Collie A Power Station (~80 jobs) – Oct 2027   • Bluewaters Power Station (~80 jobs) – AEMO is not modelling Bluewaters in the WA grid past 2028  • Muja Power Station (~300 jobs) - Oct 2029  • Premier Coal (~450 jobs) – 2030  Government and industry have promised us new jobs, and the planned new green steel mill and low-emissions magnesium metal refinery are exciting opportunities. But we have no certainty about when these projects will become a reality.  We need to send the federal government a clear message that if they can name a day to close our jobs, they can name a day to open new ones.   We need Industry Minister Tim Ayres to use Commonwealth funds to deliver for workers where we need them most.   We need the federal government to hear Collie workers when we say: no closing gates without opening dates.

  • No Future for Nuclear: Daniela De Martino
    We don't want dangerous and expensive reactors polluting our environment and endangering our communities.  Nuclear energy is the least cost effective solution for our energy needs. Why is Peter Dutton spending time on a plan to INCREASE our energy bills? Nuclear energy is also TWENTY YEARS away from generating energy in Australia. We need renewable energy solutions and good energy jobs. Bottom line - Australians don't want dangerous nuclear waste being transported through our communities, or nuclear disasters leaking cancer-causing chemicals into our environment.  Peter Dutton - abandon your dangerous and expensive nuclear folly.
