Make no mistake, Dubai Ports can afford to pay their Australian workers. Support the workers here: australianunions.org.au/landing-page/w…

We stand with our friends at @MUASydneyBranch supporting workers and community in non-violent protest calling for #CeasefireNowInGaza nswccl.org.au/statement_from…

A big piece in today's Sydney Morning Herald. I think the penny has just dropped about what is actually going on and who is involved in this battle for our future. #Windpower smh.com.au/environment/cl…

Tradies have warned about the deadly effects of engineered stone for years, and now the union has banned workers from using the stone after the government failed to step in. Joanna McNeill was diagnosed with silicosis and told us how she feels about the ban.

The wreck of the Blythe Star is located almost 50 years after it sank off the Tasmanian coast, its crew believed dead — until, astonishingly, they appeared out of the bush far from where the ship sank. ab.co/3nXYlQw

All the questions have been answered. All the assurances given. It doesn’t matter what we say to Dutton. The great Australian silence is stuck in his head. #ItsTime

On wharves and ships around the port of Melbourne, the workers @AarinMoonMUA , David Ball and I spoke with over the weekend all responded in favour of the referendum proposal to recognise the First Peoples with a Voice. I’m proud of the support the MUA’s solid support. #Yes23

#EXCLUSIVE: A wastewater plant that will look after 1.5 million people in Sydney's West and South-West will be run by a Chinese company. The NSW government has awarded the operations contract to the foreign group, despite denials it would privatise Sydney Water. @cokeefe9 #9News

When Svitzer made upwards of $7billion in profits last year, a fair deal for @MaritimeUnionAU members is not much to ask for during a cost of living crisis. These workers have not had a pay rise in over 4 years. @svitzerau @SvitzerGlobal @Maersk

Merry Christmas from MUA Sydney Branch

Before the 2022 election the Coalition govt asked the Prod Commission to 'investigate' productivity in 🇦🇺 container ports. The ideological motive (union-bashing) was obvious & the PC's reco's were predictable: namely, to further suppress collective bargaining & ind'l action. /2
