but Peter Dutton was less than impressed, dismissing the event as a talkfest that would give a blank cheque to the unions.
“Millions of dollars donated to the Labor Party by unions like the CFMMEU means Anthony Albanese will always fall on the side of the union bosses over Australian businesses and Australian workers.” The summit will be just the start of a long process to give the government policies to take to the next election. It will be followed by an employment white paper “to help shape the future of Australia’s labour market”.
