ACTU – Morrison and the Banks

Secret documents obtained by Australian Unions under Freedom of Information reveal that in the days before the announcement of the Banking Royal Commission, Scott Morrison worked closely with the big four banks. 

A series of letters and emails show just how closely the Morrison Government was working with the big banks to shape the direction and limit the time available for the Banking Royal Commission. The banks gave suggestions about who should head up the royal commission too.

This is disgraceful and smacks of collusion.

It means that after voting against it 26 times, Scott Morrison only agreed to the Banking Royal Commission after the big banks gave him permission to do so.

Just one media outlet has covered this story – the ABC. Can you help us get the word out far and wide on social media, so everyone knows about this?
