Eric Abetz , the shadow workplace relations minister (and brains behind Godwin Grech and 'Utegate'), and Andrew (Rubbery) Robb, Coalition finance spokesman, will be guests of the right-wing HR Nicholls Society at its annual dinner in Melbourne.
The HR Nicholls Society has led the push to slash union power and entrench individual workplace agreements over the past 20 years. Former Labor PM Bob Hawke branded the organisation a group of "political troglodytes and economic lunatics".
Workplace Relations Minister Chris Evans said it was now clear WorkChoices was being resurrected by the Liberal Party.
"It has only taken a matter of weeks for the Liberal Party to revert to type and walk away from its election commitment to support the Fair Work Act. Consultation by the Coalition's most senior shadow ministers with the far-right HR Nicholls Society confirms that a return to anti-worker legislation is being developed"
Meanwhile (Sloppy) Joe Hockey is pleading with business to find its "squeaky voice" and offer more support to the outflanked Coalition and their "Moving Backwards" campaign.
"I think it's hugely important that members of the business community engage more directly in the policy debates that will shape Australia's economic future. The squeaky voice will get the oil in this parliament and we need advocates for mainstream change to balance against sectoral interests" he whines. 'Mainstream" once the codeword for the codeword "battlers" is now revealed as codeword for the codeword "business community" i.e. the "big end of town"
On top of this (Phoney) Tony Abbott has parachuted into the Tory Party conference in Britain to learn the ideological and public relations requirements for his plans to slash public health and education should he ever get into power!
