REITH'S INDUSTRIAL THUGGERY CAN BE STOPPED -- LESSONS FROM THE FRONTLINES
State and Federal Government clampdowns on working people's rights are
being matched by unionist and community defiance. Come along to hear an
exciting panel of guest speakers who will relate inspiring fights for our
hospital services and schools and our right to be in a union.
Pam Neisner, member of the Health Services Union, participated in an 8-day
occupation by women and migrant kitchen staff at Box Hill Hospital against
the tendering out of services and loss of jobs. Lilly Rejneveld, from the
Australian Education Union, helped organise the teachers' strike at
Blackburn High which exposed Kennett's "self-governing" schools as a
privatisation scam and showed how it can be stopped. Ruth Frenzel,
industrial officer for the Liquor, Hospitality and Miscellaneous Workers
Union, will tell about the landmark legal victory of Mario Kobza who had
been sacked for being a union member.
Dinner will be served at 6.15 pm for a $6 donation. Everyone is welcome!
Place: Solidarity Salon, 1 Appleby Crescent, West Brunswick.
