No Gozu, it is Labor who are beating up Work Choices and trying to make the worn out old label stick! :lol:
Sadly, I think it may take the swinging voters longer tha they have to see through the facade of "New Labor" with progressive "moving forward" Julia.
But I do think it is a battle for the least of two evils this time.

What worries me is not the unlikely resurrection of Work Choices but the resurrection of the ETS.
As proposed originally this was nothing but a tax passed on to consumers that contained nothing to promote any real change in polluting emissions.
I believe we need a real policy to requires and assists industry to reduce emissions not a token one that only moves money around for offsets.
Offsets can only go on growing so far - in the end output has to be reduced, by a shift to cleaner technology.

“Obviously I can't say that there will never ever ever for 100 or 1000 years time be any change to any aspect of industrial legislation. But the Fair Work Act will not be amended in the next term of government if we are in power."

Never ever!!! Now where have I heard that before???? :-k

Did hundreds of thousands of voters desert Labor in just over a month or are poll unreliable?
Bit of both?
