Today’s Bonza cancellations brought more chaos and mayhem to aviation fueled by monster market dominance of a rampant profiteering Qantas. This will continue until we get the balance right in this critical industry with regulatory oversight from a Safe and Secure Skies Commission
"Unions getting in the way of market dynamics" ie - Exposing Swissport forcing workers to sleep at the airport in between gruelling split shifts - Taking Qantas to court for 1700 illegal sackings Workers will always stand up against corporate bullies like Qantas and Swissport.
The Australian public can see right through Qantas' shiny PR facade. Qantas under Joyce has been the architect of its own demise. We need to see major investment to bring back good, secure aviation jobs and quality service standards. skynews.com.au/australia-news…
When times are bad, companies like Qantas socialise their losses. When they're making record profits, execs pocket it. Either way, workers and the public lose.

The big 4 banks have made $32.4 billion in profits in the last financial year. With the long weekend ahead of us, they can and must pay up to keep cash moving. twu.com.au/press/banks-mu…
The only thing Alan Joyce is an exemplar of is how to destroy an iconic Australian airline.

Of course there's an aviation skills shortage. That's what happens when companies like Qantas illegally outsource thousands, and split the rest across 38 companies. We need an independent commission that can act in workers' and travellers' interests. abc.net.au/news/2024-03-1…
Qantas workers have gone through mental trauma, family breakdowns, financial stress and more since being illegally sacked. An indictment on the Spirit of Australia. theguardian.com/australia-news…
Last year there were more horrific revelations about the exploitative transport gig economy. New laws have just passed that will allow minimum standards to be set in this sector. Those standards are urgent to protect transport gig workers. theage.com.au/national/victo…
Proud to stand beside these workers today. They have fought relentlessly to hold Australia’s biggest corporate bully to account.

Qantas compensation hearings next week in the Federal Court. 1700 workers were illegally outsourced over three years ago. They've stood up for justice throughout.
Last week Qantas was criminally convicted and fined $250,000 for illegally standing down Theo during covid. He was a health and safety rep standing up for his fellow workers. Next week he'll also be part of compensation hearings for the 1700 workers Qantas illegally outsourced.
Hungry Panda riders are protesting again over low pay, dangerous pressure and the unfair sacking of Zhouying
“After speaking out about pay and safety, Zhouying logged in for work for 100 hours and only got $84. If that’s not exploitative practices we don’t know what is. We’re pursuing this in the Fair Work Commission” - Emily McMillan
There’s no time to waste in creating safer, fairer jobs for transport workers.
A kick in the guts to illegally outsourced workers. They still haven't seen a dollar of compensation after Qantas dragged them through the courts for 3 years.

To the road transport workers—like owner driver Frank Black—who've been campaigning for a better industry for decades: we wouldn't be here without you.
Moments after transport reform to set safer and fairer standards passed the Senate. Wouldn't have happened without @GlennSterle

Vale Senator Linda White, a staunch advocate for worker's rights and a great supporter of the arts and Australian content on Australian screens.

Richard Goyder claims his position is “tenable” and the illegal sacking of workers was “justifiable”. His dismissive, arrogant, out of touch demeanour typifies the executive class in Australia. Profits, executive pay and bonuses at the expense of customers, workers and decency!
#SafeRates is a pathway to ensuring international standardisation of working conditions across borders. This fosters cooperation and collaboration between different countries, promoting a global culture of safety and fairness in the transport industry. @ITFglobalunion

Anyway. I very deliberately flew Virgin to Adelaide and back. On time, service fine, terminal efficient. And the fare about half the price Qantas was charging at the same time of day.
