Letters to the Editor
All the Best
Dear Peter and Staff,
It is with sadness I read that this is the last issue of Workers Online.
Thanks for all the good work of keeping me in touch with the issues that effect real Australians who live in the real world rather than in an ivory tower in Johnhowardnowhereland.
I wish you all the best for future endeavours.
Sharon Rea.
