Union members at the ABC are walking off the job today for 24 hours from 11am to protest a low pay offer which would leave them behind financially at time when the price of everything is going up. ABC staff provide a vital service, they deserve decent pay. #auspol2026 #AusUnions #ourABC

🧵 Putting together a thread of statements put out by Australian unions regarding the 2026 War in Iran. I was collecting these for myself, and thought others might find it useful. Let me know if your union puts out a statement and I'll add it. #ausunions

My love for you @oaf.org.au knows no bounds for calling out politicians like this. Labor cares about climate change?
Yeah, right.
Unions donated millions to campaign for Labor last election, and this is what you got @sallymcmanus.bsky.social.

Claims of bikies, strippers and drugs in the CFMEU threaten to end Jacinta Allan’s premiership. Can she survive? A report alleging the Victorian branch of the union had turned into a ‘crime syndicate’ has sparked a war between the state government and a corruption fighter

While organised crime can't be tolerated, it was a great victory for building workers when the CFMEU drove the AWU out of civil construction in Victoria. Wages there rose to CFMEU standards.

CFMEU coverage & EBAs must be defended. #ausunions #springst

Sarah Missen (@sarahmissen) Sometimes I don’t have enough time to put “other” news into my weekly Disputes Report. And it’s not because I’m not interested, supportive or madly refreshing tabs on my elderly laptop. One of those “...

I wrote a note over on substack about the forthcoming VAHPA special general meeting which will discuss the proposed merger between VAHPA & HACSU and how we can support VAHPA rank and file organising. #ausunions
