Matilda’s last Waltz

The Industrial Relations debate in Australia is noted by the lack of involvement of those most affected – the entire working population of the nation! We witness various politicians, churchmen, union officials arguing the issues but we do not witness a mobilisation of the workforce ending the argument one way or the other. It is the workforce that must determine its own course or be led by slimy politicians and corporate bosses.

A fragmented workforce is an amenable workforce – if solidarity is lost to apathy then its goodbye to the famous Aussie ‘fair go’ and hello exploitation and inequity.

The entire workforce must make a unified gesture of its own accord – would you have the unions or politicians lead you to ruin as they have done time and again? Nothing can resist the unified will of the workforce in this situation – surely that is obvious! Reject opportunistic union, political and theological interference. Preserve traditional Australian values and reject the harness of beasts of burden or suffer the dire consequences of inaction.

Would you sacrifice everything that Australia represents; would you devalue all that Australian workers and their families have suffered over the past one hundred and fifty years implementing fair conditions in the workplace? John Howard is the antithesis of everything that Australia represents; would you allow that spiteful, lying little coward to destroy the Australian way of life?

Heal yourselves, heal the nation – Howard’s divisive ideology of hate and slavery is your prize if you fail to act – the prerogative is yours. Organise yourselves and reject the assault on the values of the nation.

Do not forget, if you would save yourselves and the nation then the final gesture would be and must be to surrender Howard, Ruddock and Downer to the ICC at the Hague for their complicity in the war crime that is Iraq.

It is Love that conquers all, not the politics of fear, hate and slavery that Howard and his like represent.

Men and women of Australia act now, unified in purpose and in remembrance of everything that has made this nation a unique and fair land.

Love is unity – divisionism is death.

We are One.

Peace.
