Oh sure! Just like they helped the Bluescope Steel workers in the Illawarra? A Labor government that should be supporting jobs in Australia is becoming the worst representative of the Australian worker. They have stuffed it up so badly. They have stuffed up the mining tax, the carbon tax, border security with our international neighbours and spent all of our financial reserves on crap from the education revolution to roof insulation to "save us" from the GFC. And don’t even start me on the list of current and former Labor party members who are facing charges or are under investigation for corruption after feathering their own nests while Australian jobs go down the drain and we the Australian people have to tighten our belts with tax cuts. This is nothing short of a betrayal of the Australian people. Have a look at this story on the ABC about how Labor are helping out Australian workers. (Cut and paste this link to the ABC) -http://www.abc.net.au/7.30/content/2013/s3764355.htm

Holden, Bluescope now Ford and I am sure my friends in other states could list others. Who next before we can get them out of office? We are watching the slow death of manufacturing in Australia under the guidance of Gillard and Swan and the Australian labor party. Take a look at the ABC story and if the initiatives they are giving the Bluescope workers are any indication of their "help" they would be better to just give the money to the poor workers who need it. It’s another roofing insulation debacle all over again. You know what gets my goat more than anything? It is the utter hypocrisy of the unions who are supposed to stand up for Australian workers. If it was a liberal government in power unions around Australia would have united in support of the Australian worker and be up in arms but what do we hear from them? Nothing! With an election coming up they would be running advertising campaigns on TV against the incumbent government (as we have seen from them before) but what do we see? Nothing, not a word! You could only conclude by their silence that they are not interested in the Australian worker at all and the way this government treats us and it all meets with their approval. Their own silence condemns them to the irrelevant institution they have become.
