He may have stated what's obvious in certain cir***stances, but the dumb
(and gruesomely selfish) people here are the Howard/Abbot/Costello
sup****ters.
Sure, if you are a high flying
accountant/lawyer/doctor/banker/engineer/etc who is articulate and well
educated - then if your employer gives you a bad deal, then you leave
and "get another job". I agree. Life isn't very tough at the top.
What's at the core of the difference between the two main parties is
that the philosophy of the labour movement is that you look after the
interests of everyone - and those who are better able to look after
those who are less so.
There are millions of workers out there who are not self confident, well
educated, articulate, self confident professionals.
When their boss bullies them, then they do NOT have the choice of
"getting another job" - they simply have to deal with the dreadful
conditions that these new appaling laws allow the boss to impose.
That's the difference.
If you care about others less fortunate than yourself, you vote to dump
this band of corrupt (see the Auditor General re****t) amoral and selfish
selfserving politicians.
