Bin Chicken 🗑𓅠<p>Woolworths wins Fair Work Commission bid against United Workers Union<br><a href="https://www.abc.net.au/news/2024-12-06/woolworths-lawyer-accuses-union-of-metaphorical-gun/104692632" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">abc.net.au/news/2024-12-06/woo</span><span class="invisible">lworths-lawyer-accuses-union-of-metaphorical-gun/104692632</span></a></p><p>This is grim news for Woolies workers.</p><p>And, it sets a bad precedent. Other large retailers with distribution centres around Australia will be looking at this news and thinking they can screw their workers the same way and not face a picket-line outside their warehouses.</p><p>It's also worth noting that the Fair Work Commission has been stacked by LNP cronies over the last few years when the LNP were in government and had power over appointments. I'm sure many people at the Fair Work Commission try to be impartial, but it shouldn't come as a surprise when they sometimes make decisions that favour big business. The LNP has a long history of undermining "independent umpires" -- workers at Woolies and the United Workers Union are not on a level playing field.</p><p>The good news is that the United Workers Union is likely lodge an appeal, so they're still in with a fight.</p><p>My personal boycott of Woolies remains in place -- my partner & I are instead shopping at other supermarkets and local grocers, and we're thinking of making the boycott permanent. I suggest you show solidarity with the workers and boycott Woolies.</p><p><a href="https://rants.au/tags/AusPol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AusPol</span></a> <a href="https://rants.au/tags/BoycottWoolies" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BoycottWoolies</span></a> <a href="https://rants.au/tags/Scab" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Scab</span></a> <a href="https://rants.au/tags/StrikeBreaking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>StrikeBreaking</span></a> <a href="https://rants.au/tags/Woolies" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Woolies</span></a> <a href="https://rants.au/tags/Woolworths" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Woolworths</span></a> <a href="https://rants.au/tags/Unions" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Unions</span></a> <a href="https://rants.au/tags/UnitedWorkersUnion" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>UnitedWorkersUnion</span></a> <a href="https://rants.au/tags/PayYourWorkers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PayYourWorkers</span></a> <a href="https://rants.au/tags/IndustrialAction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>IndustrialAction</span></a> <a href="https://rants.au/tags/WooliesStrike" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WooliesStrike</span></a> <a href="https://rants.au/tags/WooliesOnline" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WooliesOnline</span></a> <a href="https://rants.au/tags/FairWorkCommission" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FairWorkCommission</span></a></p>
