The International Union of Foodworkers (IUF) has just launched a major online campaign focussing on union-busting in Australia. It begins with these words:Carlton United Breweries, maker of Australia's most popular beers, has sacked 54 union machine maintenance workers at its Melbourne brewery ahead of the impending merger between Carlton United's parent company SABMiller and AB InBev. The workers, members of the IUF-affiliated AMWU and the Electrical Trades Union ETU, were told their jobs would be contracted out but they could return to work as employees of the subcontractor - with a 65% pay cut!
For me, that was enough. I signed up.
