A Word Of Warning Stop
After hearing about meatworkers .. I just hope that not one of those blokes EVER VOTED for HOWARD ..as some workers STUPIDLY and CRAVENLY DID in Tasmania ..Some foolish misguided folks wanted to 'try out' a right wing government which pandered to 'individualism' or ' I'm alright jack' and now they realise , to their horror, that when little johnny was talking about ' Govern for all of US ... he didn't mean YOU workers ..no .. he means "US BOSS cockies' .. As a worker found out at POW Juice after losing 40 dollars a week the boss glibly replied " its not about whats fair ... its about whats right ... for the company ' ... and tahts folks is the what LITTLE JOHNNY STANDS FOR ....
Its time to OVERTHROW HOWARD . He needs to spend his retirement IN JAIL for WAR CRIMES, CHILD ABUSE , BACKING of DICTATORS and Abusing WORKERS FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS whcih even violate the charter of the I.L.O which should be part of the CONSTITUTION OF the Coming REPUBLIC OF AUSTRALIA
