Solidarity to all of the nurses and midwives fighting to have their work value recognised. They should never have to ask government to “value us”. Just do it @ChrisMinnsMP

A massive result today in the High Court - unanimous judgment that Qantas illegally outsourced over 1700 workers.
Proud beyond words to stand with them today after 3 years of relentless fighting.

TAFE is one of our greatest assets for ensuring our country is well-positioned for future skills challenges, and meeting those challenges will be no small feat.

As part of National TAFE Day, we’re at Parliament House with proud AEU members to talk to politicians about what it’s like to work in vocational education, and why we need to invest in our strong TAFE system. #auspol

This salary increase & commitment to further address workloads will help attract & retain the teachers we know the profession needs.

This referendum is unifying.
Corporates working with unions; religions walking side by side; multicultural Australians rallying for First Peoples.
Coalition members resigning to campaign together with Labor, Greens & Independents. All State & Territory leaders in favour of YES. – at Sydney, New South Wales

An epic community turn out in Yamba, NSW!
Dozens more volunteers signed up and committed to voting ‘Yes’.
From little things big things grow.
It is time, Australia!

Why is #Yes23 Union Business? Because union business is standing together to reduce inequity. #NSWTFwomen23

Oh FFS
Every year we get this crap around NAPLAN.
Staff public schools properly, fund them to the Schooling Resource Standard (no, they are not yet), pay public school teachers a decent wage, upgrade facilities, etc - ALL of these things COST.
Don’t tell me money doesn’t matter
